 ViewFinder: Water on the Edge
 

 
 

Host Mailha Yang and videographer Rich Enos capture elements for an upcoming episode.

  KVIE's programming philosophy is to air and create programs that reflect the community back to itself. In doing so, our productions reflect our rich history, introduce us to the people and places in the present, and help us plan for the future.

In addition to our productions America's Heartland, California Heartland, Central Valley Chronicles, and California Connected, we are proud of the range of relevant, compelling and diverse programs that we've produced this year.

And, we're particularly proud that we earned 10 Emmy Awards in 2004, more than any other station in our market.

 

Water on the Edge

As a state, California is at the mercy of its water supply. As a region, the greater Sacramento area struggles in times of drought or flood, living on land conquered by a levee system, which is as vulnerable as its weakest point, and intricately tied to the Delta- the delicate hub of the water system for the majority of the state. Managing our water supply has led to some of the state's greatest accomplishments, as well as its greatest challenges. In the effort to remap California's circulatory system, some critical events have had a profound impact on California's water history. These turning points not only forced a re-evaluation of water but continue to impact the lives of every Californian. This program examines how decisions made a century ago impact us today, and how the decisions we make today will affect future generations of Californians. Lisa McRee hosts. This program was funded by the Water Education Foundation with additional support from the California Bay-Delta Authority, MWH, and The Nature Conservancy.
