We Aim to Develop a Detailed Watershed Restoration Plan
The Collaborative is funded through a grant from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation with the goal of developing a detailed Watershed Restoration Plan. The group had its Kickoff Meeting on October 19, 2023 and has created sub-committees to investigate topics in the six improvement categories identified by the Collaborative.
We meet quarterly in order to accomplish our goal of creating and finalizing a Watershed Restoration Plan by March 2028. The collaborative creation of this document will streamline the implementation of the proposed projects outlined in the plan in future years.
As a group composed of multiple interest groups, funding and permitting will be far easier to acquire once communal prioritization of projects has taken place in the Watershed Restoration Plan.
