Oregon’s Water Strategy: Madras Regional Community Conversation

In Oregon we have a plan for our water.  It is called the Integrated Water Resources Strategy (the Strategy).  The Strategy helps us understand what water we have available in Oregon and what we need for people, plants, animals, and the land. It also has actions we can take to meet those needs.

Now it’s time for that plan to be updated. The Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD) and 13 other state agencies are working with Oregon’s Kitchen Table (OKT), a program at Portland State University.

We want to hear what you want to see in the update to Oregon’s water Strategy. Your input will help the state plan for the future to meet our water needs. We are hosting community conversations in different parts of the state.

If you are interested in attending one of these, please register here. Walk-ins are welcome.  We will have food and supervised play for children.

Contact us at (503)725-5248 or info@oregonskitchentable.org if you have questions.
