IWAC Member Workshop to discuss Executive Board meeting ideas sent on 1/14/15.
Possible Future meeting topics:
- What would a Bi-State Solution Look Like? This is more of the legal side of what options are available to both states for formulation of a long term solution to water needs. Invite attorneys Chris Meyer and Rick Eichstaedt to speak.
- Moving forward on an IWAC model. This would be a combination of the Spokane County Model and the new IWRRI Demand Study done in ARC GIS. Previously, the membership determined that it was worthwhile to have a model that both states can use and share a common way of measuring. Invite Mark Solomon from IWRRI to present the new study.
- Wastewater dischargers. We need to re-invite the major point source dischargers to the meetings and encourage their input and participation. They have a different slant on the river, reuse, storm water, and where they are going in the future.
- Water Quality. Perhaps we should designate a member to be a liaison to the Toxic Taskforce group.
- Review IWAC Goals. Let’s take what we’ve learned and write down some thoughts that apply to meeting our goals. Maybe we need to review and adjust our goals?
Possible Sub-Committees
- Conservation sub-committee. Compile conservation ideas to implement into our service areas
- Water Modelling sub-committee. Provide the membership with ideas on funding and hosting an IWAC Model. Answer questions on what would the IWAC model look like and how would we use it?
- Public Awareness and Education Sub-Committee. Develop a public awareness of IWAC, who we are and what we’re planning to do.
