Notes  

Grant Davis is Assistant General Manager of the Sonoma County Water Agency. He is responsible for management activities related to the Agency’s core functions of water delivery, wastewater management, flood protection, and environmental sustainability. Prior to joining the Agency, Mr. Davis was Executive Director of The Bay Institute, a respected science-based nonprofit, dedicated to protecting the San Francisco Bay-Delta Watershed and improving water management in California.

Mr. Davis also worked for Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey from 1993-1997. Grant covered energy and water-related legislation. He was also an aide to State Senator Milton Marks of San Francisco and to Assemblywoman Lucy Killea of San Diego. Davis also operated a successful small business, specializing in strategic planning, public relations and campaign management.

Mr. Davis currently serves on the University of California President’s Advisory Commission, for the Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources. He was a member of the Governor of California’s Water Plan Advisory Commission, Chair of the San Francisco Bay Joint Venture and Vice Chair of the Bay Area Water Forum. Mr. Davis received his BA in political science from the University of California at Berkeley.

Lorrie has a PhD in Soil Physics from Oregon State University and has been with the USGS as a Research Hydrologist since 1986. Her current research involves downscaling future climate projections to ecologically relevant scales (1-km to 30-m) and using that as input to a regional scale hydrologic model with the same scale output. The research provides precipitation, min and max air temperature, soil moisture, potential and actual evapotranspiration, solar radiation, climatic water deficit, snow accumulation, snow melt, sublimation, recharge, and runoff. Projects are being conducted throughout the western US for analyses of water availability, flow and transport, snowmelt processes, and ecosystem change. In addition to climate change research, Lorrie has spent the last 3 years working on the Laguna floodplain developing a conceptual model of floodplain sedimentation, measuring sedimentation, and developing a 2-D hydrodynamic model of flow and sediment transport.
