WHO WE ARE

ABOUT US

 

The Powder Basin Watershed Council is a locally organized, voluntary, non-regulatory group established to maintain and improve the conditions of the Powder Basin watershed. A watershed is an area that provides our drinking water, habitat and wildlife, soil in which we grow our food, and streams, rivers and lakes we use for fishing, boating and swimming. We all share a common interest in having a healthy watershed.
