Need grant writing support for water conservation projects? Contact Western Resources Advocates.
Update: Please note these 2021 changes in funding request consideration by the Southwest Basin Roundtable:
- Given a stronger-than-anticipated WSRF fund balance, applications will accepted for consideration at the Roundtable’s meeting on October 28, 2021.
- WSRF Basin funding requests will generally be limited to $25K so as to be able to cover more requests while WSRF funds remain scarce.
- For entities requesting Statewide WSRF funds, the Roundtable asks that you only request 10% of the Statewide request from the Basin Roundtable funds.
- Concept Proposals are welcome at all Roundtable meetings, as a step towards a full WSRF request.
For WSRF grant applicants, please complete the following questionnaire and submit it with your application:
