Our River City Section is made up of engineers and related professionals responsible for designing and inspecting California’s infrastructure, improving air and water quality, and developing clean energy and green technology. The River City Section is comprised primarily of State Water Board members with other members from our At-Large agencies (Office of Emergency Services, California Energy Commission, and Regional Water Board Offices in Rancho Cordova, Santa Rosa, and South Lake Tahoe.) Together, we have over 750 members!

NBA Basketball Game Event
On Wednesday March 9, 2022 about 150 members enjoyed an evening watching a Kings basketball game at the Golden 1 Center. The Kings played against the Denver Nuggets. River City offered subsidized tickets and food vouchers. Attendees also enjoyed a private lounge area to watch the game from, lower bowl seating, and Kings swag to take home. The evening ended with access to the basketball court for a group photo. This was our first major in-person event since 2019. Thank you to all who attended and organized this event.
PECG River City Section wins Section of the Year 2020!
The River City Section was the winner of PECG’s Section of the Year Award for 2020! Our Section offers five committees that run a wide variety of programs, from providing scholarships for members’ dependents and upgrading its website, to providing materials, mentors – and soon, an online forum – to help section members prepare for FE or PE exams. When COVID-19 forced our section to cancel a highly anticipated Kings game event, our section shifted gears and sent member appreciate packages to some 220 members that included a personalized note from its leaders. In addition, our section developed a simple flow chart to help expecting mothers navigate their pay, health insurance, and leave options after hearing that some members were confused about maternity leave. Looking ahead, our Section aims to continue to thrive and push onward and upward to provide more to our members!
