SCCWRP released a report on October 18 (the 40th anniversary of the 1972 Clean Water Act) reflecting on changes in the region's coastal condition. The report was prepared collaboratively with SCCWRP member agencies and provides unparalleled insight into how southern California's water quality has changed in response to the many investments made by local, state, and federal agencies over the last four decades.
