Public workshops on statewide Water Resource Protection Plan

MEDIA RELEASE

The Commission on Water Resource Management (CWRM) is in the process of updating the statewide Water Resource Protection Plan (WRPP) and is seeking the community’s input on water resource issues of importance.

The purpose of the Water Resource Protection Plan is to establish policies and identify actions needed to ensure the long-term protection and sustainability of Hawaii’s precious and limited ground and surface water resources.

Commission staff will be holding seven workshops statewide starting next week, so people on each island may participate.

All workshops are from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and will include a short slideshow about the Water Resource Protection Plan.

This will be followed by smaller group discussions to talk in more detail about specific water resource issues in each community.
