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 yourself, that believe our right to protect our watersheds are inherently more important than corporate bottom lines.


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.
