Green Valley Creek Water Resources Public Meeting – Tuesday, November 30, 6 pm
The Russian River Coho Water Resources Partnership (Patnership) is pleased
to announce a public informational workshop to share what we have been
enaged in to support local water supply and conservation issues in the Green
Valley Creek Watershed. The Partnership is comprised of staff from the Gold
Ridge and Sotoyome RCDs, the Center for Ecosystem Management and Restoration
(CEMAR), the Occidental Arts & Ecology Center’s WATER Institute (OAEC), the
University of California’s Cooperative Extension (UCCE), and Trout
Unlimited (TU). Together we have made signficant strides in establishing a
scientific foundation to identify key reaches that could benefit from
grant-funded water conservation or storage projects. Please come join us on
Tuesday November 30th, 6:00pm at the Graton Community Club to hear the
following talks and learn about opportunities to potentially benefit from
this program. Please forward this email to anyone who lives in the Green
