WHATCOM COUNTY, WA (MyBellinghamNow.com) – A handful of online seminars have been scheduled for people impacted by water adjudication.

Whatcom County Public Works says that eight hour-long workshops will be held this spring, with the first set for April 22 at noon. Each webinar is limited to 50 households that use residential wells.

Aspect Consulting, a water rights consultant, will offer demonstrations and provide information about the adjudication process.

For those unable to make it to the online sessions, two in-person seminars will be held in late May. Those in-person seminars will be hosted by the Washington State Department of Ecology in Ferndale and Lynden.

Find more information on water adjudication resources at the Whatcom County website.
