The Sunrise River WMO's activities and priorities are guided by their watershed management plan. These plans typically have a 10-year lifespan. The SRWMO's current plan will expire December 31, 2009. A process for drafting an updated plan began in October 2008. The planning process has included the SRWMO Board, input from city staff and other interested agencies, and public input opportunities.
