Public Meeting on Basin-Wide Flood Damage Reduction

Join the meeting virtually on Tuesday, November 10 from 5:30-7:30pm.

This is an opportunity for Chehalis Basin residents and others to get updated on the Chehalis Basin Strategy, and to help shape flood damage reduction strategies that will impact our homes, property, businesses, communities, transportation, fish and wildlife, and our rivers, streams and forests.

This will be the first of three public meetings hosted by the Office of Chehalis Basin to hear directly from Basin residents and others on the choices related to reducing flood risks and damages that could affect our daily lives and the future health of our region.
