AUBURN, Calif. – The Placer County Water Agency (PCWA) Board of Directors awarded six grants totaling $185,000 to four public water purveyors, in Placer county, at its May 11 meeting.

The grants, funded through PCWA’s Financial Assistance Program, are supported, in part, through property taxes and assist Placer County special districts on projects that align with PCWA’s guiding principles of its County-Wide Master Plan. These principles include safe and reliable drinking water service, water infrastructure reliability, and water and energy resources stewardship.

The 2020 grant recipients were selected based on staff recommendations and are included below along with a brief description of each project:

Foresthill Public Utility District – Awarded two grants totaling $75,389 to help fund regulatory improvements for monitoring critical infrastructure at Sugar Pine Reservoir, and a required regulatory watershed survey.
