MEETING INFORMATION
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is hosting the third public meeting for the Webb Tract Wetland Restoration and Webb Tract Rice Conversion projects located on the central Delta island of Webb Tract. These projects, funded by the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Conservancy and Metropolitan, will develop a new wetland and convert existing agricultural lands to a sustainable rice crop. Together, both projects are designed to stop and/or reverse subsidence, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, create habitat, and sequester carbon. In addition, some funding is provided for scientific efforts.
Malinda Stalvey, Metropolitan's Project Manager, will provide updates on the Wetland Restoration Project design and the status of the Rice Conversion Project. This meeting is co-hosted by the Metropolitan and the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Conservancy and is designed to solicit your feedback on the projects. Time will be reserved for questions and answers.
You can join us via Zoom. The meeting is expected to last for approximately one hour. For more information about these projects, click here.
