The council will conduct an informational workshop regarding the format and content of proposals from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Wednesday at the makai room of Kokokahi YWCA in Kaneohe.
The council was formed as part of the settlement of a 1992 lawsuit filed by several environmental groups that sought to force the city to improve water quality in Kaneohe, Kailua and Waimanalo bays. It has drawn up a master plan for the area's water quality improvement and awarded one group of project contracts earlier this year.
Proposals must be received by 4 p.m. July 19 at Kailua Bay Advisory Council, c/o Pacific Islands Land Institute, 270 Kuulei Road, Suite 201, Kailua, HI 96734.

KBAC is requiring that proposals be submitted on its form and will give preference to projects that address the actions in KBAC Master Plan Table 4-A. Both the proposal form and links to the priority projects and measures can be found at the KBAC Web site www.kbac-hi.org/proposals.htm.
