Watershed planning under RCW 90.82 is being jointly conducted
in the Little and Middle Spokane River Basins. The Spokane
River System is tributary to the Columbia River and extends
from Washington into Idaho. Water Resource Inventory Area
(WRIA) 55 is comprised of the drainage basin of the Little
Spokane River. WRIA 57 is comprised of the portions of the
drainage basin of the Spokane River upstream of the confluence
with Hangman Creek and within Washington State.
Spokane
County is the lead agency and one of the initiating
governments. Members of the
Planning Unit include broad representation of interests within
the basins and hold monthly meetings that are open to the
public.
The watershed planning effort has identified a variety of water
management challenges. This web site provides an overview
of the project for the interested public and also provides
access to project management and technical resources for project
team members.
