H2O Water Network is co-hosting “Working Together for Cleaner Streams,” a stormwater management workshop on Tuesday, June 2, 2026 from 8:30 AM to 2:30 PM at The Whitehall House in Pittsburgh, PA.

Join for a day of networking, and learning with government, nonprofit and stormwater management colleagues. Plus, visit a stormwater management project in the Saw Mill Run Watershed and a real-world look at what effective stormwater work looks like on the ground.
