The MCF grant will also support the WaterPlanet Alliance’s public education and outreach regarding Community Choice Aggregation, including potential benefits, risks, and environmental and economic considerations.
In Napa County the Campaign will team up with MIG, a Berkeley-based consulting firm, for a climate protection “circuit rider” for Napa’s cities and the County. The Napa work is funded by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. |
