In January and February, 2018, residents of Green Valley will once again have the opportunity to learn about Arizona water from a team of WRRC personnel. The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) is a non-credit lifelong learning program open to all adults over the age of 50. Classes are taught in four locations serving Greater Tucson and Southern Arizona. This is the fifth year that the WRRC will be teaching for OLLI Green Valley about water resources in the Southwestern U.S. The course title is "Current Water Issues in Arizona and Beyond" and this year the course will include five classes, each taught by an expert from the WRRC. Classes are 'Where's the Water - an Arizona Tour' (Program Director for UA Water, Environmental and Energy Solutions, Claire Zucker); 'Wastewater: Is It For Drinking?' (WRRC Associate Director Jean McLain); Agricultural Water Use in Arizona (WRRC Assistant Director Susanna Eden); Rainwater Management with Green Infrastructure (Research Analyst Ashley Hullinger); and Water Sharing across Borders: Water Issues in the Colorado, Santa Cruz, and San Pedro Basins (Research Analyst Jacob Petersen-Perlman). Registration is scheduled to open at noon on Wednesday, January 3.
