Since 1989, the California Stormwater Quality Association™ (CASQA) has assisted the State of California, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, municipalities, special districts, and businesses in developing and implementing effective stormwater quality management programs in California. CASQA is a leader in helping California comply with the municipal, construction, and industrial National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) stormwater mandates of the federal Clean Water Act and the state Porter-Cologne Water Quality Act.

CASQA held its first conference in 2005 in Ontario with feedback showing that the conference was highly successful.  In 2006, CASQA held its second annual conference in Sacramento, which proved to be an overwhelming success filling the meeting rooms to capacity during many workshops and putting hotel staff to the test overfilling luncheon rooms as well.  By most all accounts, CASQA’s third conference in 2007 in Costa Mesa was its biggest and best.
