The final Community Well-Being and Water and Wastewater Needs Assessment report for the full Mountain Counties Funding Area does the following:1) identify regional priority issues and challenges for DACs;
2) provide community assessments that offer a more in-depth assessment of community condition than DWR’s single-measure determination of “disadvantaged” status based on income;
3) document the water and wastewater needs and challenges, as well as technical assistance needs and requests, within the MCFA IRWMs; and
4) provide recommendations for how to benefit DACs and Tribes moving forward.
