About the DRMT
The DRMT is a partnership of individuals and stakeholders working together to develop and pursue implementation of locally-based, long-term solutions to Dungeness Watershed management issues. The Team has operated since the late 1980s, with active participation from farmers, shoreline property owners, governments, conservationists and a dozen other representatives, to coordinate on water quantity, water quality, flood control, forest management, salmon recovery and other critical watershed issues and outreach.
