Mission

EFCC is a grassroots effort to protect the East Fork of the Lewis River, as well as our homes and families. A restored wild gene bank of salmonid resides below a gravel quarry which is applying for expansion. Lucia Falls is just 40 miles north of Portland, OR in SW Washington. Scientists have validated residents fears concerning landslide risks, noise, dust from trucks and blasting, surface and groundwater pollution, double gravel truck traffic on steep windy roads, and the need for a SEPA review. This is a popular tourist and fishing destination. We need to preserve this irreplaceable asset.
