YOUR INPUT WANTED: Design of Proposition 4 Watershed Resilience Program

From the Department of Water Resources:

The California Department of Water Resources (DWR) invites you to participate in a short survey to help inform development of the upcoming Proposition 4 Watershed Resilience Program.

This new program will combine funding from the following two sections of Proposition 4 to make approximately $152 million available for grants statewide:

  • Section 91019 (Conservation), for projects that increase water conservation in agricultural and urban areas, and
  • Section 91031 (Climate Resilience), for projects related to integrated regional water management to improve climate resilience on a watershed basis

Public feedback is essential to ensure these solicitations are designed to effectively support watershed-scale solutions, local priorities, equity considerations, and climate resilience goals across California. Survey responses will help DWR understand community needs, funding priorities, and address potential implementation challenges.

👉 Please complete this approximately 20-minute surveyhttps://forms.office.com/g/ZXFXYV98Q6 

The survey will remain open until March 6, 2026, 11:59PM.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspectives and for your continued engagement.  If you have any questions or problems, please do not hesitate to contact the Program Manager, Ann Marie Ore, at:  annmarie.ore@water.ca.gov.

Sincerely,
