After careful deliberation, and with much gratitude to all presenters and registrants, the organizers of the 2010 H2O Conference have determined that it will not be feasible to hold this year’s H2O Conference due to a labor dispute at the event hotel, the Hilton Long Beach. Among other things, the labor union contacted event sponsors, presenters and exhibitors encouraging them not to participate in a conference at the Hilton and this outreach campaign made it extremely difficult to move ahead with the conference, originally scheduled for May 11-13.

PLEASE SAVE THE DATE: Next year’s H2O Conference will be held May 10-12, in Long Beach or San Diego.

We are soliciting feedback about the preferred location (Long Beach or San Diego) for next year’s conference, so please let us know by sending a message to Steve Aceti at steveaceti@calcoast.org.

We look forward to seeing everyone next May!
