From the Delta Stewardship Council:
The Delta Science Program has begun the process to update the Science Action Agenda (SAA) – a science agenda for the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta that prioritizes and aligns science actions to inform management decisions, identifies major gaps in knowledge, promotes collaborative science, and builds science infrastructure.
Collaborative development of the 2022-2026 SAA will stem from a broad list of management questions—as called for by the 2019 Delta Science Funding and Governance Initiative—to ensure science actions inform policy and management and to improve coordination across the Delta science enterprise.
You are invited to participate in an online survey that will help to identify these management questions as well as provide feedback on the 2017-2021 SAA. Responses are requested by 5:00 PM on Friday, July 17, 2020 to be considered.
Management questions received through this survey will be added to an inventory of questions that will be evaluated (based on draft screening criteria) and refined during a virtual public workshop on September 29, 2020. Workshop registration is now open.
To learn more about the document and 2022-2026 update, visit the SAA web page or e-mail SAA@deltacouncil.ca.gov.
