Lecture #3: Opportunities in Local Policy: What GCDs, Counties, Cities, and HOA Boards Can Do to Protect Groundwater.
Speaker: Marisa Bruno, Hill Country Alliance Water Program Manager

Bio: In her role as Water Program Manager at the Hill Country Alliance, Marisa works with local Hill Country partners, including grassroots advocates and elected officials, to promote policies and projects that advance water supply resilience and protect groundwater and surface water flows. She got her start in Texas water as a program strategist for the Texas Water Foundation.

Marisa received her Master of Environmental Management from the Yale School of the Environment, where she specialized in water resource management and policy. Her graduate research focused on Texas groundwater management and community water planning. 

Synopsis:  With the Legislature in session, many water wonks are focused on state water policy at the capital.  While there’s no denying the importance of state investment and focus on our growing water challenges, there is also a lot that can be done at the local level to protect our groundwater resources.  This webinar will spotlight policy opportunities from four Hill Country Alliance resources looking at what GCD’s, Counties, Cities, and HOA Boards can do to promote groundwater conservation in the Hill Country.

Stay tuned for additional monthly lecture topics coming in 2025!
