SUMMARY:SB Partner KEC-Living with Finite Water
DESCRIPTION:KEC Presents\nLiving with Finite Water \nDespite living on the wet side of the Cascades\, we are not immune from another year of drought in Washington state. Join us tomorrow\, May 17\, when we’ll explore Kitsap water sources\, regulatory protections\, the impact of increased development\, and what you can do to Keep Kitsap Green. \nDetails: \nDate:  Sunday\, May 17\, 2026 \nTime:  3:00 – 5:00 p.m. \nWhere: The Village Green – 26159 Dulay Rd NE | Kingston \nFor Kitsap Peninsula residents groundwater drawn from wells is the primary—often the only—source of drinking water. As our population grows\, demand on this limited resource increases. Because the peninsula is surrounded by seawater\, it is particularly vulnerable to declining groundwater levels and seawater intrusion—risks that intensify as withdrawals rise. \nJoe Lubischer will give the lowdown on how the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) and the County’s Critical Areas Ordinance (CAO) are applied in Kitsap County. Ben Harrison\, Environmental Scientist for the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe\, will discuss watersheds\, and Don Fenton\, Island Lake resident\, will share the history of dropping lake water levels and the aquifer below\, considered a local “canary in a coal mine” for water health in Kitsap. Local artist and marine naturalist\, John Wililams\, will also present. \nEarly bird bonus: The first 20 attendees can take their pick of either a native plant or a special sticker designed by artist Laurel Mundy. \nThis is intended to be a family-friendly event – kids’ crafts and refreshments will be available. Please feel free to bring something to share!
