Water & Natural Resources

The Tuolumne County Natural Resource Advisory Committee

The Board of Supervisors established the Natural Resource Advisory Committee in 2010.  In December 2022, the Board approved the elimination of the Tuolumne County Water Agency Water Policy Advisory Committee and directed that the Board’s Natural Resources Committee be the venue to discuss all natural resource issues, including water rights and advocacy. This committee is open to the public.  Visit the Natural Resource Advisory Committee webpage for more information and to sign up for meeting agenda notifications.

Natural Resource Committee’s 2024 Strategic Priorities:

  • Support our local water utility partners in their effort to modernize and improve water supply infrastructure and mitigate risk.
  • Maintain awareness of pertinent State and Federal legislation regarding natural resources, land use, water, and water rights.
  • Maintain awareness of Tuolumne County Federal land use policy, planning, and implementation and provide recommendations and advocacy as appropriate.
  • Promote landscape and watershed resilience through innovative solutions and capacity building.
