The Nevada Drought Forum announces its first meeting schedule. The Nevada Drought Forum was established by Governor Sandoval to assess and monitor the drought in Nevada, identify conservation practices and policy needs, and make recommendations to the Governor. The Forum seeks to evaluate drought findings and provide input on future steps in the form of a final report thus providing the Governor with information and action plans concerning the drought.
On June 11, 2015, the Nevada Drought Forum held an organizational kick-off meeting, open to the public, to provide introductions of the Drought Forum Members and to discuss the current drought status and forecast for the future. During this meeting they determined dates, times, and locations for future meetings and have circulated this information to encourage public attendance. The meeting schedule can be accessed at http://drought.nv.gov/Meetings/2015/Public_Meeting_Notification/. The drought in Nevada has profound and lasting effects on all who live here. Remember, your input and involvement can make a difference!
