A list of 2005 final applications with sponsor and costs, a project location map, and project summaries are available for downloading. All materials, including additional powerpoint presentations for each proposed project, can be obtained by contacting Richard Brocksmith.
The LE Technical Advisory Group met on September 16, 2005 to rank project proposals. The results are available for downloading, as are the meeting notes. The Habitat Project List Committee met on September 23 to review the TAG-ranked project list. The HPLC affirmed and adopted the final TAG list.
On January 6, 2006, SRFB awarded funds to projects #2 to #7. The project sponsor pulled the #1 ranked Union River Estuary Acquisition proposal so that they could continue to address lingering concerns from several local citizens through a series of public workshops. Final funding results are available for viewing here.
