The Crooked River Watershed Council was formed in 1994 and chartered by the Crook County Court. A board of directors representing specific interests in the watershed provides policy direction and guidance to the staff of three. To fulfill this mission, the Crooked River Watershed Council relies on its 16-member board and partnering organizations to set out and approve biennial work plans that address watershed limiting factors and priority needs. Since it’s inception, the Crooked River Watershed Council has implemented over 75 projects that promote the mission and address limiting factors identified through assessments, studies, reports, and regional plans. Current outreach activities engage approximately 300 local citizens and students on an annual basis.
