Background:
Working together for the first time are the many diverse stakeholders in the area of water management - water and wastewater agencies, storm water permit holders, land use agencies, river conservancies, environmental and watershed advocacy groups, and the public. The IRWM Plan reflects a comprehensive approach to water resources planning that integrates ongoing local planning efforts and perspectives in order to maximize water management benefits and resolve any existing or potential conflicts. The IRWM Plan identifies programs and projects that best achieve the Region’s goals to optimize water supply reliability, and protect and enhance water quality - while providing stewardship of our natural resources.
The 2007 IRWM Plan will be utilized to apply for project implementation grants available through Propositions 50, 84, 1E, and other anticipated funding opportunities.
