Dear Ms McCaig:
Re: Support of the Colorado WaterWise Council Grant Application
Our organization's mission is to administer the Fryingpan-Arkansas Project. In performing our
mission, we fully embrace the importance of water conservation, water use efficiency and wise
water use in our community's efforts to manage our most. precious water resources now and
into the ftiture.
Our organization applauds the CWCB far developing, maintaining and administrating its water
conservation and water efficiency grant programs, and we will continue to show our support
for these important state programs into the future. In addition, we recognize the importance of
communications and technical assistance in helping to promote and support more meaningful
water conservation statewide, which is the underlying goal of the CWCB grant programs.
To help move water conservation to the next level, our organization fully supports the project
for an Executive Director being proposed by the Colorado WaterWise Council (CWWC) to the
Colorado Water Conservation Board. We strongly encourage the CWCB and the Office of
Water Conservatian and Drought Planning to consider the merits of the CWWC grant
application and award the requested funds to this worthwhile and important program that will
benefit water managers, basin roundtable members and water conservation experts statewide.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
~~
ames W. Bradenck
