Projects & Programs

The Water Resources Program undertakes a variety of projects throughout the county. Our expertise ranges from simple hydrological measurements to technical geomorphology projects. We also facilitate and manage watershed planning efforts. Our projects and programs result from studies and research, management plan recommendations, and property owner requests, among other means. If you would like to work with us on a project that involves your property, please contact us with more information. Walt Edelen (509) 535-7274.

Watershed History Program (Old Timer's Club)
