**********************************
The Coal Creek Watershed Coalition had a busy summer! In June, we removed sixty-two batteries from the Forest Queen Mine and delivered them to a reclamation facility for processing. We've collected over 400 water, insect, and sediment samples throughout the watershed and will be using the information to create a Watershed Restoration Plan.
The Coal Creek Watershed Coalition (CCWC) is excited to join the ranks of One Percent for the Planet, a non-profit organization that builds and supports an alliance of businesses financially committed to creating a healthy planet. Worldwide, 1165 companies donate one percent of their profits to their choice of 1,972 environmental organizations through One Percent for the Planet. The CCWC has joined this roster of environmental organizations, hopes to receive funding from companies appreciating the non-profit’s work.
The CCWC looks forward to being a part of the One Percent for the Planet Program, and hopes its participation helps the organization to carry out its mission to maintain, restore, and enhance the environmental integrity of the Coal Creek Watershed to provide high-quality water for wildlife, aquatic life, and human life. In addition to creating such opportunities for environmental organizations, One Percent for the Planet offers businesses the chance help create positive environmental change, receive recognition for their contributions, and spur additional action from consumers and other companies. Participating companies also enjoy shared membership with likeminded companies: the opportunity to build new business relationships and share dialogue, ideas, and resources.
