Water Quantity: Puget Sound Jordan Lont

The Problem Not enough water for people. They are growing thin on water resources Not enough water for salmon. The creeks water levels are decreasing, making it harder for the salmon to return to their spawning areas. Not enough water for other species and their habitats

What is being done. Farmers, ranchers and other water-rights holders will often sell, lease, water rights to Washington Water Acquisition Program, so they can restore these areas. A regional water supply planning process is technical information regarding current and future water flow issues in and around King County

What people can do to help. Volunteer for to help clear streams Withdraw water from dams Drink bottled water
