2002 LEGISLATIVE REPORT
Active Projects

139.PROJECT:WWDC Conservation Officer
LEVEL:N/A
SPONSOR:WWDC
LOCATION:Statewide
PROGRAM:New Development
  
EXISTING LEGISLATION:
Purpose Chapter Session Account Appropriation Due Date
Conservation 86 2001 I $50,000 2003

PROJECT INFORMATION:
The 2001 Legislature appropriated matching funds to continue the position of Conservation Officer and transferred the position to the WWDC. This is a program where the Bureau of Reclamation provides matching funds to promote water conservation in the state, and has been in place for the past three years. The Bureau of Reclamation funding has recently been re-authorized, and the contractual arrangements between the WWDC and that agency are in good standing.

RECOMMENDED LEGISLATIVE ACTION:
The WWDC recommends the project be incorporated into the New Development Program at Level I with an appropriation of $100,000.
