2 Goals Evaluate: 1. Current and future water demands 2. Water conservation opportunities 3. Groundwater resources 4. Impacts of climate change to streamflow 5. Alternatives to maintain viable water use/supply 6. Impacts to fish habitat from climate and water supply alternatives
3 Partners 1. Hood River Water Planning Group Formed in 2008, stakeholders throughout Hood River Basin 2. United States Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) $250,000 in-kind contribution through WaterSMART Basin Study program. 3. Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD) $250,000 Water Conservation, Reuse, and Storage Grant. - Watershed Professional Network (Water Use, Water Conservation, PM) - Normandeau Associates (IFIM) - HRC, USGS (Groundwater)
