TRFMA Community Outreach Workshop
(Formerly Working Group)
TRFMA Community Outreach Workshops provide in-depth information about the Authority’s mission, programs, and work to reduce flood risk along the Truckee River. Workshops include technical presentation seminars on various flood mitigation projects, modeling and forecasting, infrastructure design, and public safety, as well as overviews of how TRFMA collaborates with regional partners to plan, fund, and deliver flood risk reduction efforts in the Truckee Meadows. These sessions are educational in nature and include opportunities for questions and discussion. This meeting series was previously known as “Working Group” but is being renamed to reflect its updated mission.
