Eastern Idaho Water Rights Coalition - Eastern Idaho Water Rights Coalition

The annual meeting of the Coalition will be held November 9, from 11:30 to 1:30 in the Idaho Falls City Council Chambers at 680 Park Avenue in Idaho Falls. Lunch will be provided.

Our speaker will be the new Director of the Idaho Department of Water Resources, Mat Weaver. After he addresses the organization we will have plenty of time for questions and discussion. Please come with questions, or even better, forward them to us and we will send them to Director Weaver.

Following this discussion we will have a quick business meeting for board elections and other business. Please register for the meeting by replying with the names of who will be attending from your organization. We need this information to have the right number of box lunches.

We appreciate the support you have given the Coalition this year. Attendance at board meetings and our special meetings has been higher than ever. Please visit the Coalition’s website at www.easternidahowater.org to see any information you may have missed.

Best Regards,

Keith Esplin & Roger Warner
