From Jim Branham, Executive Officer of the Sierra Nevada Conservancy
May 28, 2013
I’m pleased to announce the release of the Sierra Nevada Conservancy’s (SNC) Proposition 84 Grant Program Report – Investing in California’s Watershed. This report showcases a sampling of the 294 projects funded through SNC’s Proposition 84 Grant Program and highlights the benefits of investing in the upper watershed.
Since the initiation of our Proposition 84 Grant Program in 2007, the SNC Board has awarded over $50 million to fund projects that meet the primary goals of the measure and of our statutory authority. We have funded projects in all 22 counties to a wide range of grantees. This impressive accomplishment was made possible through the hard work of our many partners, the SNC Board and the SNC Staff.
If you would like additional information, please email us at geninfo@sierranevada.ca.gov or call (530) 823-4670 or toll free at (877) 257-1212.
The Sierra Fund’s multi-year strategic campaign to envision and establish the Sierra Nevada Conservancy was successful when the new state agency was founded in 2004.
