The Binational Summit on Transboundary Groundwater at the US-Mexico Border, which is organized by the International Boundary and Water Commission, United States and Mexico (IBWC), will take place April 10-11 in El Paso, Texas. The Summit brings together US and Mexican federal, state, and local agencies, as well as non-governmental organizations and the academic community, to share information and promote U.S. and Mexico cooperation on groundwater resource related issues. The keynote address will be given by UA Water Resources Research Center (WRRC) Director Sharon B. Megdal. Other WRRC staff speaking at the conference include Research Analyst Jacob Petersen-Perlman, who will participate in a panel on stakeholder engagement, and Senior Research Specialist and Ph.D. Candidate Elia Tapia, who will present on hydrogeologic modeling. Arizona will also be represented by James Callegary, U.S. Geological Survey, who has partnered with the WRRC and will also be speaking and moderating at the conference, and Einav Henenson, Arizona Department of Water Resources. This forum hopes to promote the state of knowledge about regional, transboundary groundwater systems and to learn from other geographic regions that face similar needs.
