The SJRWI is a resource for public education and information on the watershed. We maintain a database which contains current and historical water quality monitoring data.

We present or sponsor several public educational workshops annually.

The SJRWI Annual Education Meeting & Program

Held in December, the Annual Meeting brings together board members, employees, stakeholders and public officials to celebrate the accomplishments of the previous year.
