<br />Page 2 <br /> <br />In 2005, the CRC received a grant in the amount of $56,765 from the CWCB to perform 1,200 <br />irrigation audits. In the current 2006 proposal they are requesting a total of $77,290 to conduct 2000 <br />irrigation audits, and in addition to, they plan to measure actual water-savings directly related to the <br />program. <br /> <br />The applicant has demonstrated 51 % of associated costs paid by committed participating cities, 13% <br />of project as in-kind contribution from CRC staff, and is requesting from the CWCB the remaining <br />36% of funds for completion of project. Staff has reviewed and evaluated the grant request and <br />finds that it meets the CWCB guidelines for reviewing grant proposals. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />The OWCDP staff recommends that the Board award a Water Efficiency Grant in the amount of <br />$77,290 to the Center for Resource Conservation (CRC) for its "Slow the Flow Colorado" program <br />to complete 2000 irrigation audits and to aid in a quantification/qualification study (Phase II) which <br />will conclude actual water-savings in relation to the project. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />Flood Protection.
