Visitor Centers
The Public Affairs Office (PAO) designs and creates water education exhibits
for use in visitor centers at State Water Project (SWP) facilities.
These exhibits describe the importance of water in our state and how
it is transported and used. They also explain the State Water Project
and its aqueducts, reservoirs, pumping plants, powerplants, and other
features.
California state-wide issues such as water conservation, floods, droughts,
and environmental uses are also the subject of Department of Water Resources
exhibits.
PAO assists and trains visitor center guides who are available onsite
to explain the exhibits. PAO staff also coordinate special events at the
visitor centers.

Recreation
