Protect Lane County Watersheds

POW_Logo_horiz.png


PLCW
 is a petitioning committee collecting signatures now for an initiative to secure the Right of Waters and Watersheds to sustainable recharge, flows sufficient to protect native fish habitat, and clean water unpolluted by any activities of corporations, governments, and other business entities.

 

We are a group of dedicated Lane County residents, like you,
that believe our right to protect our watersheds are inherently more important
than corporate bottom lines.


Join us for the Final Fundraiser of the Year!

We're in Eugene this time, with two local bands: It's Character We opening for The Greg Nestler Band. There are raffle tickets along with a silent auction with awesome prizes, including an overnight stay on the coast in an Airbnb! We are up against big pockets, so we hope you bring a full wallet and lots of friends. Get ready for a night of music and fun at Whirled Pies - Tickets are online NOW and start at just $10 - However, feel free to give as much as you want!

Join us, and Community Rights Lane County for their once a month public gathering on Zoom. We give updates on our campaign, including the current signature count! Learn about events where we're tabling and places to collect more signatures. We hope to see you there!

What is a watershed?

It’s a land area that channels rainfall and snowmelt to creeks, streams, and rivers, and eventually to outflow points such as reservoirs, bays, and the ocean.


Learn Why we need a Watershed Bill of Rights!

Water is routinely extracted...
commodified...

...polluted by corporate and governmental activities...

With little to no financial, civil, criminal, or moral accountability. 

This is unsustainable as all of life depends on clean water for survival.
