Today we’ll talk about a large grant that the EPA just awarded to a local environmental group, the Lower Columbia Estuary Partnership, funding the group’s work to enhance communities and address watershed needs in our region posed by issues like sea level rise and other challenges.

It’s another example of behind the scenes work that often unsung organizations do routinely, to make our communities more resilient, and the public funding that makes such projects possible.
