Submitting a Project to the Bay Area IRWMP
Project proponents who would like to propose a project not already included in one of the can contact info@bayareairwmp.net to find out how to submit a project.
The Bay Area IRWMP is not currently accepting projects because the Coordinating Commitee is refining the project submittal, review and prioitization procedures.
The past process for submitting new projects to the Bay Area IRWMP involves five steps:
- 1) Complete a Project Information Template for the proposed project.
- 2) Determine which FAD is the most appropriate 'house' for the project.
- 3) Submit the project to 'info@bayareairwmp.net' and identify the appropriate FAD.
- 4) The IRWMP team will evaluate the project using that FAD's assessment criteria to determine its priority within the FAD inventory.
- 5) If the project is identified as a high priority project in that FAD, it will be assessed and included in the IRWMP.
If you want to submit a project, please contact info@bayareairwmp.net.
