In performing OUf <br />mission, we fully embrace the importance of water conservation, water use efficiency and wise <br />water use in our community's efforts to manage our most precious water resources now and <br />into the future. <br /> <br />OUf organization applauds the CWCB for developing, maintaining and admi.nistrating its water <br />conservation and water efficiency grant programs, and we will continue. to show OUf support <br />for these important state programs into tIle future. In addition, we recognize the importance of <br />communications and technical assistance in helping to promote and support more meaningful <br />water conservation statewide, which is the underlying goal of the CWCB grant programs. <br /> <br />To help move water conservation to the next level, our organization fully supports the project <br />for an Executive Director being proposed by the Colorado WaterWise Council (CWWC) to the <br />Colorado Water Conservation Board. Pending the approval of the District's 2008 budget by <br />the Board of Directors, the District will provide 80 hours of staff time for the District's <br />Conservation Outreach Coordinator to assist CWWC in its endeavors. This support is <br />equivalent to $3,200.00. We strongly encourage the CWCB and the Office of W'ater <br />Conservation and Drought Planning to consider the merits of the CWWC grant application and <br />award the requested funds to this worthwhile and important program that will benefit water <br />managers, basin roundtable members and water conservation experts statewide. <br /> <br />Thank you for your consideration4 <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />f='~O'~i~~~ <br /> <br />Executive Director <br /> <br />31717 UNITED AVENUE · PUEBLO, CO 81001 · PHONE (719) 948~2400 · FAX (719) 948-0036 <br />\,veb site: VV\Nw.secvvcd.org <br />
