The Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee (PBAC) is dedicated to ensuring the long-term sustainability and quality of water in the Palouse Basin, which serves as the primary source of drinking water for Moscow, Idaho, and Pullman, Washington. A collaborative effort between public entities including cities, counties, and universities, PBAC works to manage and protect the Palouse Groundwater Basin through ongoing research, monitoring groundwater levels, and advocating for educational opportunities.
Since its establishment in 1992, the committee has focused on implementing the Palouse Basin Groundwater Management Plan, aiming to safeguard this critical resource. PBAC also explores additional water sources and provides transparency through regular updates, reports, and community meetings. With a deep commitment to ensuring a sustainable water supply, the Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee plays an essential role in protecting the region’s water resources for future generations.
