History of Water in Silicon Valley

This presentation by the Santa Clara Valley Water District will showcase the past, present and future of water in Silicon Valley. It will take a close look at what we have done to ensure a reliable supply of safe, clean water throughout the years as population density has increased and as the main industries of the valley have changed. It will also look at historical flooding and what we have done -- and continue to do -- to protect lives, homes and businesses, including the latest preparations and actions to guard against the "Godzilla" El Niño we have been promised in 2016. It will include tips for water conservation for the drought and flood protection for El Niño storms -- a dichotomy that we're living today.
