ENVIRONMENTAL-
ISTS met on Saturday

form an alliance to
address watershed
issues throughout the
province.

The B.C. Tap Water
Alliance was created to focus
on community water supply
issues.

Greater Vancouver Reg-
ional District watershed
activist Will Koop said the
alliance’s greatest concern is a
government policy of multiple
use’ of water supply water-
sheds “and how that policy
relates to long-term health
and economic issues for com-
munities — road building,
logging and cattle grazing in
community water supply
watersheds."

the Apanding meeting of the
new alliance were Koop,
