Las Vegas Valley Watershed Advisory Committee

Establishing a management structure to provide local oversight for the Las Vegas Wash Coordination Committee was one of the key recommendations from the Las Vegas Wash Comprehensive Management Plan. This led to the creation of the Management Advisory Committee, which later reorganized into the Las Vegas Valley Watershed Advisory Committee (LVVWAC) to expand the focus from the Wash to the entire watershed.

Eight local agencies make up the LVVWAC:

LVVWAC vision: Las Vegas Wash established and maintained as an integrated community resource.

LVVWAC mission: To develop the Las Vegas Wash into a resource for the community by stabilizing erosion, protecting water quality, and supporting the development of the Clark County Wetlands Park.
