Nisqually River Council in Quality Water Services Directory

    

Nisqually River Council Oversees protection of the aquatic and wildlife habitats, waters, and wetlands of the river basin. Includes organization information, watershed map, reports on chinook salmon recovery efforts and other activities, and links to related sites. The Nisqually River Watershed is a land of wind and wildlife, glaciers and storms, towering firs and diminutive banana slugs.Yet it is also a land greatly affected by human decisions and activities. Though the Nisqually is one of the least developed rivers in southern Puget Sound, it faces an uncertain future. Flowing 78 miles from its source at the Nisqually Glacier on 14,410foot Mount Rainier to its delta at the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, the Nisqually is a direct link between the summit snows of Washingtons highest peak and the marine waters of Puget Sound.
