The Puyallup River Watershed Council is excited to announce that we will be hosting the annual Puyallup Watershed Symposium on Thursday, December 7, 2023 from 1pm-6pm. The Puyallup Watershed Symposium is a free event where you can learn about or share information about research, environmental justice, and other work occurring in the Puyallup River watershed (WRIA 10). This event will be in-person and will take place at the Point Defiance Pagoda.
We invite those doing work in the Puyallup River watershed to submit an abstract for an oral presentation (15-20 min) or poster that targets one or more of the focus areas in the Puyallup-White River Ecosystem Recovery Plan (ERP). You must present in person at the event.
The focus areas are:
- Equity and Human Wellbeing
- Climate Change
- Salmon
- Estuaries
- Floodplains
- Forests
- Farms and Agricultural Lands
- Stormwater and Water Quality
The full ERP can be found at Puyallup-White River Local Integrating Organization – Ecosystem Recovery Plan.
Please submit your abstract at 2023 Puyallup Watershed Symposium Call for Abstract Submittal Form by October 31, 2023.
