WATER: Lifeblood of Central Oregon
As our region changes so do our needs. Chief among them is the need for water. What governs its allocation? Whose needs are most pressing? Who is facing these challenges?
On August 19th the City Club of Oregon will welcome Deschutes County Commissioner Alan Unger along with three advocates for varying uses of water to introduce the work being done by the Deschutes Water Alliance to tackle this critical issue.
Along with Commissioner Unger will be

Suzanne Butterfield, General Manager, Swalley Irrigation District

-
Patrick Griffiths, Water Resources Coordinator, City of Bend
