Did you know that there may be affordable improvements to your commercial or industrial property which would greatly improve runoff water quality? These improvements nearly always improve aesthetics of your location as well. You may qualify for matching funds!
Amazon Creek provides many benefits for Eugene: recreational activities, important habitat for native species, flood control, irrigation for downstream farmers and more. With your help it can be a greater community asset. Many small contributions will make our community creek a better place for people, fish, wildlife, and Eugene.
