The District welcomes Nicholas Lavrov, who was elected to the Board of Directors in November and  will be sworn in on December 19.

Mr. Lavrov’s experience includes over 25 years in the public sector, during which he's worked for the National Park Service, San Francisco Water Department, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and U.S. Bureau of Land Management. Currently, he serves as Environmental Protection Specialist at the Federal Emergency Management Agency in Oakland, helping the states of California, Nevada, Arizona, Hawaii, and territories located in the U.S. Pacific Islands to rebuild after disasters.

Mr. Lavrov notes his focus will include upgrading aging infrastructure, increasing use of recycled water, and expanding the low-income program for the disadvantaged in the community. He will serve the remaining two years of this seat’s four-year term (the partial term is due to the resignation of former Director Ronald Ford in early 2024).
