Roseville encompasses 43.05 square miles and is positioned along I-80 and Highway 65. The city has long been focused on water needs, especially now with the drought blanketing the western United States.

The American River is the lifeblood of our community. It provides life-giving water to the people and animals of our region. It's also a rich ecosystem that sustains myriad species, as well as a rich environment for recreation. Generations of Sacramento-area residents have grown up on and along the banks of our rivers, staying active and healthy while connecting with nature. Managing the river is a complex task undertaken by a variety of agencies. The Sacramento Water Forum is a diverse group of business and agricultural leaders, citizen groups, environmentalists, water managers, and local governments working together to balance two goals: providing a reliable and safe water supply for our region in the long term and preserving the fishery, wildlife, recreational, and aesthetic values of the lower American River.
