All the glaciers that once fed the Elwha River have melted, so now our sole water source is mountain snowpack for Port Angeles’ water supply.
Therefore, the city needs to either limit or put a complete moratorium on new housing permits until after a study by a reliable, independent company can make a determination on what our water future is likely to be over the next few decades.
Remember, there is no known substitute for water.
