General Information
Project Description Narrative (1,000 character limit)
Given the uncertaintly of the impacts of climate change, the current drought situation, and the lack of back-up drinking water for the Hopland Tribe and Hopland Community this project is a high priority for the security of the greater Hopland area. Developing a collaborative relationship for the management of water resources between the Hopland Tribe and Hopland Water District is a vital step in not only managing drinking water, but also laying the groundwork for collaborative management of the Hopland area groundwater basin.
