Update: Due to a decline in revenues, as of April 2018, the Southwest Basin Roundtable adopted the following changes to their consideration of funding requests:
- WSRF proposals will only be considered for funding approval in July and January which aligns with the schedule for consideration of Statewide funding requests.
- WSRF Basin funding requests will be limited to $25K so as to be able to cover more requests while WSRF funds remain scarce.
- There is $7 million in additional funding in the Projects Bill for the Water Plan Implementation grant categories. These requests do not require Roundtable approval but benefit from a letter of support signed by the Roundtable Chair.
- Concept Proposals are welcome at all Roundtable meetings, as a step towards a full WSRF proposal (January and July), and to present a Water Plan Implementation Grant proposal for which a letter of support from the Chair will be requested.
For WSRF grant applicants, please complete the following questionnaire and submit it with your application:
