This grant initiative aims to advance crucial water conservation efforts within the Yakima River basin. It seeks to support and stimulate the widespread implementation of various water conservation measures, while also proactively identifying and encouraging voluntary reductions in water diverted from the Yakima River. The primary goals of this program are multifaceted and interconnected: to significantly enhance the availability of water supplies essential for robust irrigation, to diligently protect and improve the region’s vital fish and wildlife resources, including sensitive wetlands, and concurrently to elevate the overall quality of water throughout the Yakima River basin. This funding opportunity is designed for comprehensive projects focused on sustainable water management strategies that yield broad ecological, agricultural, and community benefits.
