Allen/Quilceda Watershed Action Team
A/QWA Team
The Allen/Quilceda Watershed Action (A/QWA) Team is a diverse community group working together to implement the Quilceda/Allen Watershed Management Plan and to improve the overall water quality of streams in the Allen/Quilceda Watershed through education, community outreach, and improvements to the environment. The Team is comprised of representatives from local city, county and state agencies, the Tulalip Tribe, Marysville Schools, non-profit organizations, and local businesses and residents.
Team activities include:
- The restoration of a section of Jones Creek and the creation of a permanent outdoor environmental educational center
- Community outreach through newsletters targeted at streamside residents
- Restoration activities such as planting native plants along stream banks
- Youth education on such topics as water quality and its effect on stream organisms
- Earth Day celebration activities
