Bioenergy Association of California (BAC)

California Wastewater Climate Change Group (CWCCG)

is a partnership between BACWA, CASA, CVCWA and SCAP, and is a statewide coalition of wastewater treatment agencies focused on climate change assessment and adaptation fostering opportunities for science-based, cost-effective climate change solutions.

Clean Water Summit Partners

is a group of clean water leaders that represent five state and regional wastewater associations in California. The Partners meet quarterly in Sacramento to explore opportunities for collaboration on water quality issues of critical importance to our collective memberships. Full Factsheet

Central Valley Salinity Coalition (CV-SALTS)

is a Central Valley salinity coalition representing stakeholder groups working with the regional board in the collaborative basin planning process.

Partnership for Sound Science in Environmental Policy (PSSEP)

is a coalition of municipal agencies, businesses, trade associations and others who are concerned about the proliferation of environmental regulations that are not predicated on sound, objective science.

Tri-TAC

is a technical advisory committee representing CASA, the League of California Cities and the California Water Environment Association (CWEA).

Studies

UC Davis Biosolids Compost Speciation of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Study

The purpose of this study was to research different VOCs, which are emitted during the composting process, in order to determine each ones reactivity or ability to act as a precursor to the ground level formation of ozone.

Pyrethroid Reevaluation by the California Department of Pesticide and Regulation

The Tri-TAC Pesticides Stakeholders Group lent their expertise to the registration and review process for potential impacts of pyrethroid insecticides within wastewater and biosolids systems.

WateRuse Research Foundation PPCP/EDCs Recycled Water Study

This research reviewed methodologies for screening human health risk-based criteria for pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), and potential endocrine disrupting (EDCs) compounds in water intended for indirect potable reuse.

ACWA/CASA Energy Research Project

In pursuit of California’s long standing commitment to developing clean renewable energy resources and reduce the adverse effects of climate change on our state and the world, the California Energy Commission (CEC) stepped forward in 2009 to assist in the research project of gathering data from water and wastewater agencies that will identify opportunities to develop reliable and cost effective renewable resources. This project was a collaborative effort between CASA, ACWA, PG&E, CEC and Southern Edison.
