We are thrilled to announce that California Natural Resources Secretary Wade Crowfoot will deliver the keynote address. Secretary Crowfoot leads statewide efforts to conserve California’s environment and natural resources and has served as Secretary since 2019, advising Governor Newsom as a member of his cabinet. He oversees an agency of more than 25,000 employees across 26 departments, commissions, and conservancies, responsible for stewarding California’s forests, rivers, water supplies, and natural lands.
The brief program will also include LiDAR demonstrations and examples, as well as a toast to all the collaborators. We hope you’ll join us and Secretary Crowfoot in celebrating this incredible step toward a more resilient California. Register Now.
