Chehalis Basin Partnership meeting - Poplars for Biofuel and City of Chehalis Water Supply Options @ Lucky Eagle Casino | Rochester | Washington | United States

We will have two presentations of interest to residents of Lewis County. Everyone is welcome:

Poplar Farms and Bio-Refinery in the Chehalis?

Researchers at WSU Extension are looking at the potential for a poplar tree-based
bio-economy in Lewis County. They are examining the economic feasibility of a
refinery in Centralia supplied by poplars grown within 60 miles of the site. They will present details on the proposal and ask community members what they think.
This presentation will interest anyone involved in agriculture, wastewater treatment, or land and water use in the Chehalis River Basin.

City of Chehalis Flood Mitigation and Water Supply Solutions

The City of Chehalis is setting up a flood mitigation site, as well as a dedicated fund and a mechanism for providing mitigation credits for filling in the floodplain. The City is also looking at new water treatment and supply options to support economic development. Trent Lougheed will provide details.
