Dept. of Ecology Drought Grants
Getting help to farmers, threatened fish species, and local public health agencies is the focus of an initial round of emergency drought grants from the Washington Department of Ecology. The $750,000 in grant funding was made available July 28 when Ecology adopted an emergency drought funding rule.
The rule comes two weeks after a July 14 emergency drought declaration emergency, which covered nearly all of Washington state. Click here for more information.
