coliform bacteria as well as survey all agricuitural properties in the project area to identify and correct
sources of fecal coliform pollution. Contractor will identify degraded riparian areas as potential restoration
sites, working with willing landowners to remove invasive weeds and plant native trees.

funds at 25% totaling $38,735. There is no financial impact to the county.
