Water Resources Advisory Committee (WRAC)

2009 WRAC Conference Call

360-407-3780 PIN 602714 #    

WRAC was established in 1996 to provide a forum for the exchange of information on water resources management in the state of Washington.  Typical topics of discussion include proposed rules, policies, legislation, budget development, and litigation.

Meetings are normally attended by about forty people who represent state agencies, local governments, water utilities, Indian tribes, environmental groups, consultants, law firms and other water stakeholders.  Unless notice is provided otherwise, meetings are held on the third Monday of each month from 9 AM to noon in the auditorium at the Ecology headquarters in Lacey.  Anyone is welcome to attend who is interested in water resources management in Washington.

We maintain an E-mail list of about 100 individuals who receive notices of meetings and other matters. 

Contact Chris Anderson, WRAC Web master at cand461@ecy.wa.gov or (360) 407-6634, to be added to the E-mail list or to direct any questions.
