Did you know? Grant funding plays a big part in water conservation and quality efforts! With recent hurricanes and flooding affecting much of the southeastern U.S., these issues are top of many folks minds. For water conservation efforts to succeed, community support is essential, and. of course, the right funding. One key process is “reclamation.” Reclamation includes water recycling and desalination programs. The Bureau of Reclamation<\/a><\/strong> serves as the primary funding agency for these projects, working to extend and preserve the U.S. water supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
