We have worked to align public policy positions with water stewardship goals and through the Alliance for Water Stewardship Standard, we have initiated additional deep-dive analysis of challenges and opportunities as well as shared risk in the basin. We are continuing to conduct deep analyses of our key at-risk growing areas and facility watersheds. We realize that much of our impact is beyond our direct operations which ultimately may be affected. We are working to implement strategies for watershed improvement as they are identified (e.g., on-farm groundwater recharge). dwater recharge). In large watersheds, our review will include current efforts in which we may participate. Many of the ideas evolving in California will be applicable in other watersheds. We continue to work to understand water risk in the Yongding He basin.
