<p class=MsoNormal>Dear OSN Listserv Members - <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Late last year, Sustainable Shawnee members collaborated
with Rep. Kris Steele to write the Oklahoma Water Conservation Program Act
which would create a fund for statewide community-based water conservation
programs administered by the Oklahoma Water Resources Board. After a near death
experience in the Senate Appropriations Committee, HB2702 was grafted to
HB3135, a bill to require licensing for any new water wells or changes to
existing wells also adminstered by the OWRB. The text of both bills can be found
at <a href="http://www.okhouse.gov">www.okhouse.gov</a>. I have attached the
original HB2702 for your information.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I'm writing to ask for everyone to contact their individual
Senator ask for his/her support for this bill. It's an exciting opportunity to
educate in communities around the state and for OSN. Though I have not been
told when or if this will be brought to a vote, I recommend you contact your
Senator immediately as the session is quickly coming to a close.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Shawna, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>HB3135, containing the Oklahoma Water Conservation Grant Program Act
language, just passed the House 98-0. The next step is the Senate floor. The
bill also contains the language "contingent upon the availability of
funding".<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thank you, <o:p></o:p></p>
