In our expanding efforts to improve water quality at Nye Creek and throughout Newport's watersheds, the Newport chapter has been campaigning for municipal code updates and best management practices for water quality through stormwater, sewer and other non-point source pollution variables. We need your support to help the passage for some of these codes! Please let your city council and staff know that watershed and stormwater protection are important to you! Next city council meeting is
Tuesday, February 19th at 6:00 pm. Attached below is our latest city correspondence which can be utilized for comments or testimony if you like:
