Water for Flathead’s Future is a grassroots organization that arose in opposition to the proposed operation of a major water bottling plant in our midst. We are an organization that has representation of multiple age groups, genders, political affiliations, as well as professions and trades. We provide community education and resources for further understanding the negative impacts of water bottling on our environment, social cohesion, as well as our economy. We are spearheading the major community-based legal opposition to the bottling plant’s water and wastewater permits (US Fish and Wildlife Services are also actively opposing the granting of the water permit, as are several individual objectors who represent themselves in the matter.)
