The Kansas Water Office is accepting applications from those who would like to participate as a member of one of the 14 Regional Advisory Committees (RAC) which will be established by the Kansas Water Authority.
Interested individuals are encouraged to apply soon as the deadline for the Regional Advisory Committees (RAC) is less than two weeks away.
For almost 30 years, citizen advisors have been a vital voice for water resource issues in Kansas. These committees will play a key role in advising the Kansas Water Authority on the implementation of the Kansas Water Plan and soon to be completed Vision for the Future of Water Supply in Kansas. Prior to the Kansas Water Vision, water planning was based on 12 basins. To better reflect the diverse water resources of our state, there was a transition from 12 basins to 14 regions. The committee selection process will ensure all of the water users and interests within the region are represented.
Interested persons can find the short application form at the following link: http://www.kwo.org/about_us/RAC/Application_RAC_060915.pdf. The application deadline is July 10, 2015.
Kansans can have a definite impact on the future of water resources through RAC membership. For further information please visit www.kwo.org or call: (785) 296-3185 or 1-888-526-9283.
