The Bureau of Reclamation awarded the Bard Water District a $1,357,565.38 Project Grant on May 1, 2021 to line one mile of the Mohave Canal in California. The grant is part of the USDA's Agricultural Water Conservation Efficiency Program (AWCEP, CFDA No. 15.572), which aims to leverage cost sharing for projects that save water and improve water management in agriculture. Under the award, Bard Water District will line one mile of the Mohave Canal to reduce water loss and increase water supply reliability for agricultural users through September 30, 2022. Upon completion, the project will help optimize available water resources in support of the AWCEP's goal of sustainable water use in farming.
