Watershed Watchers Survey

Dear Birch Bay Watershed Resident,

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, interest and suggestions for how best to protect and monitor Birch Bay’s natural resources. Our beautiful bay and local waterways are home to a wide array of species that all rely on a clean and abundant water supply. Natural resource protection cannot happen without an engaged and proactive community.

In an effort to better serve the interests of the community and the environmental needs, we have developed this survey. The information gathered will allow BBWARM to provide more opportunities for individuals to get involved in local environmental stewardship. Your responses will remain confidential, and including your name is optional.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to share your thoughts. We request that responses be submitted no later than October 20, 2018.
