Joint Powers Authority
|
The WCA is a local public entity of the State of California exercising joint powers of the San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers and Mountains Conservancy (RMC) and the Los Angeles County Flood Control District pursuant to Section 65000 et seq. of the Government Code. The purpose of the WCA is to expand and improve open space and recreational opportunities for the conservation, restoration, and environmental enhancement of the San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers Watershed area consistent with the goals of flood protection, water supply, groundwater recharge and water conservation. WCA’s vision of Connecting Communities through Nature embraces a ‘work with nature’ approach to watershed enhancement. WCA partners with local and regional entities to plan and implement projects to improve our watersheds through investment in open space, parks, trails, bikeways, and greenways. WCA maintains more than 700 acres of open space, ranging from foothills lands to urban river parks that serve some of the densest and most diverse neighborhoods in the country. |
