Quote from a regional planning process participant:
"Rogue basin communities in southwest Oregon must take the necessary steps to learn how to cope with the effects of climate change and to develop the systems that will allow them to recover from its impacts. Our region is resilient and strong, but to remain so we must begin to respond to these coming changes."
-Craig Harper, Rogue Valley Council of Governments
