Read Our Latest Op-Ed on Poseidon

It’s time we hold Gov. Newson accountable for his irresponsible actions that will harm the environment and cost ratepayers thousands of dollars on water bills.
Newsom’s removal of William von Blasingame from the Santa Ana Regional Water Board is reprehensible and puts the state’s environmental review process in peril.
Check out our founding director Garry Brown’s latest op-ed condemning these actions and learn how the governor’s support of Poseidon will harm Orange County financially and environmentally. https://gomixte.co/3gydyQp

One more spot available on our new Membership Advisory Committee

Orange County Coastkeeper is looking to add a new member from the Inland Empire to the Membership Advisory Committee (MAC) comprised of individuals from Orange County, Inland Empire, and Coachella Valley.

The role of the Membership Advisory Committee (MAC) is to effectively communicate with Coastkeeper’s membership in order to understand what local issues are most important to the communities it serves. Committee members will gather multiple times within a year to organize and recommend the best solutions for the community, then present ideas to the board of directors for consideration.

If you live in the Inland Empire and are interested in joining, email [email protected].
