Project Description

PLPT needs a watershed-based management plan (Plan) to (1) coordinate remediation and pollution prevention efforts on the Reservation, and (2) be eligible for future competitive funding opportunities, including further 319(h) funds. We propose to develop this Plan for the Tribe by capitalizing on existing information and data as well as utilizing Tribal expertise and collaboration. The final report will include detailed short- and long-term pollution prevention and remediation goals that could be implemented by the Tribe as available funding and resources permit. This report will be available on the Truckee River Information Gateway (TRIG) at the end of the project period.
