Funds for the Defense of Western Watersheds
Deadline: September 30, 2008
The mission of the William C. Kenney Watershed Protection Foundation is to preserve watersheds in the Western United States, including Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The Foundation accepts applications for the following two types of grants: Discretionary Grants and Policy Grants.
* Discretionary Grants support projects anywhere in the targeted states that address western water policy on a local, state, or national level; defend environmental laws critical for the protection of all western rivers; or focus on a specific strategy for protection of a biologically important western watershed.
* Policy Grants encourage policy research and analysis of issues that affect western water. Research topics might include alternatives for managing water demand, mechanisms for transferring water to environmental and recreational use, or commentary on federal and state actions that affect water policy.
Inquiry emails are accepted at any time, but must be received by.
