Regional Water Providers Consortium

Water. Save a little. Help a lot.  We think of the Pacific Northwest as a place of abundant rainfall (about 37 inches per year) and plentiful water.

And, it is – for now. But, as our water demands continue to grow, long term water supply issues, and the factors that impact them, will become more important to us all.

The Regional Water Providers Consortium is committed to good stewardship of our region’s water through conservation, emergency preparedness planning and water supply coordination. Click here to find out more...
