Current water issues, policies, and research are discussed by state, federal, and local experts. The Student Research Water Poster Competition, held concurrently, offers students from any institution of higher learning in Oklahoma the opportunity to share research or extension/outreach topics related to water resources in Oklahoma.

Water for 2060 Excellence Award Nominations Now Open

The award program was developed to recognize exceptional contributions to the promotion and implementation of water use efficiency and conservation of Oklahoma’s fresh water resources as recommended by a special advisory council to the Governor and Legislature after the passage of Oklahoma's historic Water for 2060 Act in 2012. 

Nominate a project for a Water for 2060 Excellence Award by 5:00 p.m. on September 30, 2024.
