Nominations Sought for Kansas Water Regional Goal Leadership Teams
Last week Governor Sam Brownback and the Water Vision Team shared the second draft of the Long-Term Vision for the Future of Water Supply in Kansas. The second draft, available at www.kwo.org, outlines a process for establishing goals by region as a means for measuring success and implementation of the Vision.
One step in the goal setting process is to identify up to a five-person Regional Goal Leadership Team for each of the 14 planning areas (shown in map on page 55 of the Vision document). These five individuals should represent various water resource categories for the region (industry, stockwater, municipal, irrigation, conservation, etc). The role of each team is to participate in a public scoping process in their region, develop draft goals for their region based on public input and available resource condition information as well as present the draft goals to the Kansas Water Authority.
The Kansas Water Authority is seeking recommendations to serve on Regional Goal Setting Teams. The time commitment for the individuals identified to serve on the Leadership Teams is from January to August 2015.
If you are interested or have a recommendation, please provide the following by December 10 to Susan Metzger at susan.metzger@kwo.ks.gov.
Name of recommended individual
Email address for recommended individual
Home city
Brief 2-3 sentence statement of qualification of the recommended individual
