CRNA will work with regional communities, organizations, and agencies to conduct environmental sampling for water quality, waste, air quality, and erosion. These sampling projects will gather environmental data to quantify effects in the environment so communities can plan mitigation activities to improve human and environmental health. Use of regional QAPPs will also allow collaborative monitoring of the implementation of the adaptation plan and help inform adjustments to the plan according to results over time.
