2006 - Salinas Valley Integrated Regional Water Management Functionally Equivalent Plan Summary Document UPDATE

The California Department of Water Resources (DWR) and the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) are encouraging local and regional water management planners to establish integrated regional water management plans through the collaboration of planning efforts and project coordination. The intent is to encourage planners to implement projects focused on meeting multiple water resources needs on a regional basis. Jointly, both agencies are soliciting grant applications for Proposition 50 Chapter 8 grant funding, which was established to provide a fiscal tool to support integrated regional water management. In order to take advantage of this funding opportunity, Monterey County Water Resources Agency (MCWRA), Marina Coast Water District (MCWD), and Castroville Water District (CWD) have formed the Salinas Valley Water Management Group to spearhead regional planning for the Salinas Valley Region of Monterey County.https://digitalcommons.csumb.edu/hornbeck_cgb_5/1035/thumbnail.jp
