The Northwest Climate Resilience Collaborative synthesized information on the regulation of nitrate groundwater contamination in the Lower Umatilla Basin Groundwater Management Area and developed case studies from other communities facing water quality problems in groundwater. We also developed a funding database of state and federal funding opportunities which could be used to advance the Groundwater Management Area’s advisory committee’s recommendations.
