However, projects that have a clear nexus with drought, wildfires, and aquatic resilience will be prioritized for funding in the Winter 2023 Request for Proposals. The OCRF Advisory Committee encourages all applicants to explain how/if their project relates to "water" and how their proposed projects may address State needs for planning, research, education, and actions around drought, wildfires, and aquatic resilience.
