The Delta Drought Response Pilot Program (DDRPP)<\/a> provides farmers with financial incentives to reduce their water use and protect wildlife and water quality in the Delta. DWR allocated $8 million for grants for the first round of the program, which allowed more than 8,700 acres to be enrolled. With more funding allocated in the budget act of 2022, the program launched a second phase with an additional $10.8 million in grant funding for 2023, with 16,116 acres enrolled in water-saving practices and 6,400 acres enrolled in bird benefit practices.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.25.2″ background_color=”#00112b” custom_padding=”4px||3px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.2″ text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_line_height=”1.8em” text_orientation=”justify” max_width=”600px” module_alignment=”center” text_text_align=”justify” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]
