 Collaboration and Climate Resilience: Seal Rock Water District Finds A New Source: Seal Rock’s drinking water was in danger and for nearly 50 years, Seal Rock Water District (SRWD) relied on water purchased from a nearby town. With a $1.5 million Water and Waste Disposal Grant, SRWD was able to build a new treatment plant and 500,000-gallon reservoir above the coastal tsunami impact zone, as well as install emergency backup generators. The new system was not only more resilient but also capable of monitoring for leaks or unintentional overuse, saving residents’ money while significantly conserving water.
