Join us for some water with your lunch on Wednesday, June 29 at 12 p.m. MST to learn from River District staff members about new funding opportunities for West Slope water projects.

During this installment of the Colorado River District’s popular Water With Your Lunch series, West Slope water users will learn about ways to successfully navigate the federal funding opportunities provided by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. A cross-discipline team of River District staff members will present information about specific funding categories for water projects, how to put together a successful federal grant application, and how to leverage other grant opportunities to maximize funding and project impacts.

Along with a look at the various federal funding pools for water projects, River District staff will present details on the recently established Community Funding Partnership “Accelerator Grant.” This special funding opportunity is designed to support the grant-writing, feasibility, design, preliminary environmental review, benefit analysis, and engineering needed to complete federal funding applications. The deadline for this grant cycle is August 1.

An audience Q&A session will follow the presentations.
