The contaminated wells were immediately closed. We may be a continent away but similar events happen here too. Sometimes it's waste-oil or lawn fertilizer. Whatever the cause, Washington waters are becoming less fit for drinking, fishing and swimming, state environmental officials said Wednesday. The CRC is committed to working to improve water quality.
Water quality is a real issue.
Resolving this issue will take the cooperation of everyone. Each day that we defer making decisions which support clean water puts us further and further from the solution. Land use, water use or conservation, pesticide use, fertilizers, building practices, sewage and septic issues, logging practices, stormwater, all these and more have a direct impact on the present and future quality of your water. The CRC is a voluntary membership based organization. We are working today to do what we can to help educate people, to help agencies and stakeholders work together to provide an environment which supports are water quality and water resource.
