Mayor's Committee Recommends No Dewatering

The Sequalitchew Creek Edmond Marsh Committee, convened by Mayor Jenkins last year, held their final meeting today to put forth their recommendations that will be ultimately shared with city council.

All 77 recommendations were put forward, included NO DEWATERING of the Vashon Aquifer in the proposed mining expansion. Yeah!

SCWC Board Chair Andy Estep brought forth some very tough questioning including, "why are we letting them draw down our entire water table 1.5 feet (or more?) year-round in exchange for a fake creek?"
