SUMMARY: On April 4, 2021 the District received the executed Integrated Regional Water Management (IRWM) Implementation Round 1 Grant agreement (Agreement) for the Monterey Peninsula region in the amount of $2,238,904.

Next steps will be to issue subgrant agreements to the local project sponsors and start getting various required documents submitted to DWR.

The District, as “Grantee”, has many duties including (a) administration of the Agreement with California Department of Water Resources, (b) invoicing, with documentation, on behalf of the Local Project Sponsors, (c) progress reporting.

There are three projects – all non-District—that are being supported by this Implementation Round 1 grant, as described in Exhibit 15-A attached.
