The North Coast funding area Proposition 1 IRWM allocation is $26.5 M and has approximately $22 M available for implementation projects over two rounds of funding.
On March 15, the NCRP received 36 project proposals in response to the NCRP 2019 Proposition 1 IRWM Project Solicitation for a total request of $35.5 million.

California’s Climate Change Assessments contribute to the scientific foundation for understanding climate-related vulnerability at the local scale and informing resilience action, while also supporting State policies, plans, and programs to safeguard California from climate change. The Fourth Assessment includes reports for nine regions of the state, including climate impacts and adaptation solutions for the North Coast Region. This public workshop shared findings from the Fourth Assessment and provided an opportunity for interactive dialogue and information sharing to support local climate change action.
The NCRP is conducting a survey of agencies or organizations that have received funding in the past or is currently administering a grant award through the North Coast Resource Partnership (NCRP) Integrated Regional Water Management (IRWM) program. In anticipation of Proposition 1 IRWM funding, (anticipated to roll out in the fall of 2018), the NCRP would like to gather information about the project proposal solicitation process and contract administration. We welcome all input!
Please participate in the survey by providing responses to as many of the questions as you are able. We are conducting the survey by multiple methods to make it easier for respondents:
We anticipate that the survey should take about 20 – 30 minutes to complete.
PLEASE COMPLETE THE SURVEY NO LATER THAN SEPTEMBER 14TH.
