Portland's Bull Run Watershed is a natural, low cost and very effective water treatment system. Why are there there plans for a costly chemical filtration plant? How did the corporation Montgomery, Watson, Harza Global influence the decision process?  What happens to Bull Run protections? What about pressure to "blend" our water with the river water?  Or the $770 million price tag? The City Council vote is set for July 29. Hear Regna Meritt of Oregon Wild and Floy Jones of Friends of the Reservoirs.  They'll explain why this meeting is so important and how you can get involved.  Host Stephanie Potter.
