The Office of Chehalis Basin (OCB) will host a webinar next week to discuss proposals to reduce flood damage in the Chehalis River Basin.
The free webinar will be hosted on Wednesday, Oct. 9, from noon to 1 p.m. and will include representatives from the Department of Ecology, the Chehalis River Basin Flood Control Zone District and the Local Actions Non-Dam (LAND) Alternative effort.
The webinar is part of a series of events hosted by the OCB discussing the Chehalis Basin Strategy to reduce flooding and restore habitat for aquatic species.
Established in 2016 within the Department of Ecology, the OCB directs flood control and aquatic restoration work within the basin. Recently, the agency requested an $80 million biennial budget appropriation from the Washington state Legislature to “aggressively pursue the Chehalis Basin Strategy.”
