Special DWR Briefing Grant Funding
On March 3, Governor Brown signed a $687.4 million drought relief plan (SB 103 and SB 104). This includes accelerated grant expenditures in the form of infrastructure for local and regional projects that are already planned or partially completed to increase local reliability, including recapturing of storm water, expanding the use and distribution of recycled water, enhancing the management and recharging of groundwater storage and strengthening water conservation.
Funds will be available to the Department of Water Resources for integrated regional water management grants through an expedited solicitation round for projects that provide immediate regional drought preparedness, increase local water supply reliability and the delivery of safe drinking water, assist water suppliers and regions to implement conservation programs and measures that are not locally cost-effective, or reduce water quality conflicts or ecosystem conflicts created by the drought.
DWR is currently working on the Proposal Solicitation Package (PSP) for the accelerated IRWM funding. The PSP is anticipated to be released at the end of March.
MCWRA has arranged for DWR to provide a special briefing and Q & A on Friday, April 4 at EID for those interested in this opportunity.
