Task · part of 3. What forests contribute, and where your water comes from

3(b). Name the watershed or source your community drinks from

Required

Local research rather than general knowledge, and a short question with a specific answer.

Notes and warnings

Note. A short question with a specific local answer: the watershed or other source your community relies on for its water supply. Your water utility publishes it, usually in the annual water quality report. It follows directly from 3(a)(4) on clean water, so the two are worth doing together.
