No other conservation organization monitors all of the individual water allocation decisions across Oregon for compliance with the law and potential negative effects on our rivers.

WaterWatch:

• monitors and challenges, where necessary, water allocation decisions that undermine existing laws and policies, would create poor precedents or degrade sensitive waterways

• tracks the actions of the Oregon Water Resources Commission and the Oregon Water Resources Department to ensure legal compliance and agency accountability

• works to ensure that the state agencies that allocate and manage water carry out the streamflow protection and resource stewardship aspects of their missions.
