SEQUIM – Clallam County’s Environmental Health Division has announced an Open House this Wednesday to give an update on the PIC Program.
PIC is Pollution Identification and Correction. The program was developed in response to poor water quality in Sequim Bay and Dungeness Bay due to pollution sources upriver, such as poorly designed septic systems and livestock runoff, that led to shellfish closures and other measures.
We asked Environmental Health’s Jacob Melly if there was good news to report.
The PIC open house will include project partners Clallam County Environmental Health, Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, Clallam Conservation District, and Streamkeepers of Clallam County.
It’s happening at Sequim Prairie Grange, 290 Macleay Road in Sequim from 4:30 to 6:30 this Wednesday, March 20.
If you live here and you care about local water quality, you’re a stake holder.
