CWCB LONG RANGE PLAN <br /> Adopted July 20, 1994; Revised May 23, 1995 <br /> Page 16 <br /> GOAL 8 PUBLIC INFORMATION: To assure that Colorado citizens, including key <br /> communities and interests, have ready access to the high quality information <br /> which will be needed for the protection, conservation, and development of <br /> Colorado's water resources. <br /> Objective Public Information Officer: To appoint a Public Information Officer by <br /> May 1994 to coordinate, in consultation with the DNR, the training of <br /> CWCB staff, the response to requests for information (ongoing), and the <br /> development of a strategic plan which identifies key communities and <br /> interests and assures that the CWCB will effectively meet their needs for <br /> water resource information in a timely manner. <br /> Objective Colorado Water Almanac: To prepare a water almanac by September <br /> 1996 describing Colorado's water resources, their current uses, the <br /> infrastructure and institutions developed to manage those resources, and <br /> the issues which need to be resolved in order to assure the protection, <br /> conservation, and development of those water resources for Colorado's <br /> future. <br /> Objective Environmental Education: To provide the leadership and support <br /> necessary to assure that the water-related components of DNR's <br /> environmental education programs are factual, objective, and highly <br /> effective in reaching the key communities and interests. <br /> Objective CWCB Brochure: To prepare a brochure by December 1995 describing <br /> the CWCB, its responsibilities, and this long range plan for distribution to <br /> the public and to the various agencies and organizations interested in <br /> Colorado's water resources. <br /> V. DIVERSITY <br /> As a publicly funded agency with the responsibility to represent the best interests of the <br /> citizens of Colorado, the CWCB recognizes the appropriateness of increasing the participation <br /> on the Board and in staff positions by women and minorities. Toward this end, we will recruit <br /> qualified female and minority candidates into the application pool for state employment <br /> whenever we hire new employees at the CWCB. Since the CWCB staff is not involved in the <br /> recruitment or selection of CWCB members, the responsibility for increasing female and <br /> minority participation on the CWCB will rest with CWCB members, including the DNR <br /> Executive Director, and with the Governor. <br /> w:\wctrans\dd\cwcb95.1rp <br />
