What is the Aqueduct Futures Project? The Aqueduct Futures Project was launched in the Summer of 2012 by Barry 
Lehrman, Assistant Professor in Landscape Architecture at Cal Poly Pomona, for the centennial of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. The project is exploring the future of water infrastructure to improve adaptation and resilience in Southern California through a series of interdisciplinary courses in 2012/2013 at Cal Poly Pomona. Students in these courses are designing new landscape systems, organizing and creating events, exhibitions, and a website directed at the public and k-12 students to raise awareness about the sources and quantity of water available to us, cultural and ecological impacts of the Aqueduct, and ways to conserve and reduce water use in Los Angeles.

GIVE YOUR INPUT-TAKE THE SURVEY
The workshops are being hosted by: Tiernan Doyle, Eric Haley, James Powell, and Devon Santy, who are enrolled in the 606 Studio as their capstone experience in the Master of Landscape Architecture program. They are investigating the entire watershed supplying the Los Angeles Aqueduct to develop a comprehensive regional plan that addresses ecology, cultural uses, and the water supply as part of the Cal Poly Pomona Aqueduct Futures Project. The purpose of the 606 Studio is to provide graduating students with a final ‘learn-by-doing’ large-scale planning and regional design project in collaboration with local communities. As part of their research, they are also conducting a survey of Owens Valley and Mono Basin residents, which can be accessed via: http://www.watershedwranglers.com/index.php/eastern-s/
