SUMMARY:River News & Brews Water Watchdogs Update: Smurfit, Sheep Creek, Superfund & More!
DESCRIPTION:\nJoin us on Tuesday, February 24 from 6:00-7:30PM at the Confluence Center ( https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZZC9ZWiW5akPDxRt8 ) in downtown Missoula for an update on threats to the Clark Fork watershed. CFC staff will share the latest information on several high-priority issues, answer questions, and provide guidance on actions you can take in the coming year to advocate for our rivers and streams.\n\n\n\nCovered topics will include:\n\n\n\n\nThe highly contaminated Smurfit-Stone pulp mill site on the banks of the Clark Fork River near Frenchtown\n\n\n\nThe proposed rare earth element mine on Sheep Creek, at the pristine headwaters of the Bitterroot River\n\n\n\nMontana’s “exempt well loophole,” which developers continue to abuse, resulting in decreased streamflows and negative impacts on groundwater levels\n\n\n\nMontana’s harmful decision to shift from numeric to narrative nutrient standards\n\n\n\n\nThe Clark Fork Coalition’s Water Watchdogs Program offers concerned communities across the watershed a chance to actively shape Montana’s water decisions. Whether you’re new to advocacy or an experienced activist, this program equips you with the tools and knowledge to protect our watersheds and promote positive change.\n\n\n\nCome grab a brew, connect with fellow river advocates, and lend your voice to this critical organizing check-in for the Clark Fork watershed. There is no cost to attend, but seating is limited—reserve yours by RSVPing today!\n\n\n\nMany thanks to Bitter Root Brewing ( https://bitterrootbrewing.com/ ) and Athletic Brewing ( https://athleticbrewing.com/ ) for donating beverages for this event!\n
