Fresno State has a boot camp Friday for journalists looking to jump into the deep end of California’s often complicated water issues.
Organizers say the event will provide an “intense” look into the many facets of state water law and politics. The seminar featuring a broad array of water experts will also cover updates on major changes in water rules and laws.
