Re: Letter of Support for the Cooperative Watershed Management Program
Dear Ms. Morgan and Ms. Graber,
The Grant County Board of Commissioners write in support for the Grant County Conservation
District's (GCCD) proposal for the Bureau of Reclamation's Cooperative Watershed
Management Program Phase I funding to support the Moses Lake Watershed Council (MLWC).
Through GCCD's leadership, the MLWC has grown into an active committee of diverse
stakeholders who are committed to finding and implementing local solutions to improve, protect,
and preserve water quality in the watershed for present and future generations.
We are confident with Reclamation's financial support that GCCD will be able to strengthen and
expand the development and operations of the MLWC and will be able to lead an effective
watershed restoration planning process resulting in a Watershed Management and Restoration
Plan. Through increased coordination and collaboration, we will be able to better identify,
develop and implement watershed programs and projects that leverage resources and address
multiple water resource concerns.
We look forward to continuing to be an active member of this important watershed group and are
committed to ensuring a successful watershed planning and implementation process. If you have
any questions, please don't hesitate to contact our office at 509-754-2011 ext 2901.

HI Debbie
Sending you the template you could build on for a letter of support for the BOR grant proposal. Also sending you a plan
I developed that will be used as the guidance document for developing the watershed plan which would be funded by
this grant. Look forward to the meeting on Thursday.
