STATEMENT OF WORK
Introduction
• Brief description of intended outcome/work
County Commissioners in the Columbia River Basin are important participants in the
Department of Ecology's Columbia River Water Supply Development Program (RCW
90.90). They represent local residents who are keenly interested in how the Program
functions and strives to meet Program goals and requirements. It is important that
Commissioners are supported in their efforts to understand and participate in the
Program, be prepared to provide local perspectives to Ecology, and be able to explain the
Program to their constituents. One key mechanism for accomplishing this is through
quarterly meetings of Columbia Basin County Commissioners (the Commissioner's PAG
- Policy Advisory Group) so they can participate in project development and
implementation. Under this agreement, Kittitas County will provide support for these
efforts including agenda coordination, preparing materials, attending and providing staff
support for the meeting, and coordinating meeting logistics.

o Support County Commissioners in eastern Washington to understand and
participate in the Columbia River Water Supply Development Program (RCW
90.90)
