2023 Science Meeting
The San Joaquin River Restoration Program 2023 Science and Engineering Meeting is a two-day event at the San Joaquin River Parkway and Conservation Trust. Pathway to Success will highlight efforts to restore fish, flows and passage within the Restoration Area of California’s second-longest river from Friant Dam to the confluence with the Merced River. Presentations will be made by the Program’s subject matter experts.
The San Joaquin River Restoration Program 2020 Virtual Science Meeting was held October 14-15 from 9:00am – 1:00pm. This year’s virtual meeting included two half-day sessions of the most up-to-date and engaging science, data and insights related to the Program’s efforts from those most involved. It was a free and open-to-the-public event.

The San Joaquin River Restoration Program held its first Science Meeting on June 11-12, 2015, in Los Banos, California. The goal was to connect those conducting scientific research and monitoring to support the SJRRP, learn about preliminary findings from monitoring and analysis efforts, and inform SJRRP management of scientific results.
There were 35 presentations given in total. If you would like a copy of any of the presentations, please email Emily Thomas at ethomas@usbr.gov. We encourage you to contact any of the presenters directly to keep dialog and sharing of ideas ongoing.
