Idaho Water Resources Research Institute

Mission and Vision
IWRRI draws on expertise within the Idaho university system to (1) develop meaningful solutions for Idaho water problems through basic and applied, interdisciplinary research; (2) provide high-quality natural resource education and educational support; and (3) transfer technologies and information developed from research activities to agencies, organizations, and individuals involved in water use, management, and protection.
