Water Quality Partnerships
Water Quality Partnerships
One of the Water Commission’s key partners is the Rogue River Watershed Council (RRWC). Four watershed councils in the upper and middle Rogue River Basin merged to form the RRWC, which covers more than 2,500 sq. miles of the basin, including all of the area that drains to the Water Commission water supply intake on the Rogue River near TouVelle State Park.
RRWC is a non-profit organization that works to improve water quality, restore instream and streamside habitat, and encourage community members to become stewards of the Rogue River and its tributaries. The efficiency and capacity of the four individual watershed councils has been increased through the merger.
Medford Water Commission has strong partnerships with other organizations including Rogue Basin Partnership, Jackson Soil and Water Conservation District, Rogue Valley Council of Governments, The Freshwater Trust, Oregon Water Resources Dept., Rogue Valley Sewer Services, Water for Irrigation, Streams and Economy project (WISE) and many others. The Water Commission will continue to work closely with its partners to achieve its goal of maintaining a reliable and excellent quality drinking water supply for the citizens of Medford and the Rogue Valley.
