An Action Plan is being identified to identify short- and long-term high priority measures for protecting drinking water across the basin. The Action Plan will identify measures that:

Prevent, minimize, and mitigate activities that have known or potentially harmful impacts on drinking water quality,
Promote public awareness and stewardship of drinking water sources and healthy watersheds in collaboration with other stakeholders, and
Develop resources and financial support for RDWP Action Plan implementation.

Geographic Response Plan (GRP) Pilot Project

Rogue Drinking Water Partnership (RDWP) members are working on a Geographic Response Plan for spills that enter the Rogue River. The plan will outline strategies and locations for protecting critical resources (e.g., drinking water intakes). Resources will be protected by diversion, isolating/protecting critical resources, containing spills, skimming, and other methods.

Funding for the plan is provided by an Oregon Health Authority Grant.
