What’s At Stake
An expanding population, persistent droughts, declining fish populations, and aging irrigation infrastructure are stressing our water resources. Creating efficiencies is no longer just a pipe dream, it’s a societal mandate. FCA is committed to seeing that happen all over the American West, starting with Oregon. In partnership with rural communities, our work focuses on the pursuit of water management solutions that benefit both agriculture and the environment.
