Happy Holidays Ventura. May you be busy sharing special moments with your friends and family. Recently, Ventura Water and city staff had the privilege of hosting a special visit from U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary for Water and Science Michael Brain and U.S. Congressman Salud Carbajal to the VenturaWaterPure program. It was an honor to hear from such distinguished representatives that Ventura is on the right track toward securing a sustainable water supply for future generations. It was a proud moment to see staff and the community be acknowledged for their forward-looking implementation of potable reuse — the reclamation of our local water resources.
