Events
Join us for any of a series of workshops
to write testimony to stop the Coffin Butte Expansion
Planned Workshops
The operators of Coffin Butte have filed their application to expand the landfill. It is time to make your voice heard by Benton County. Public comments, given verbally or in writing, can be intimidating to prepare. We are here to help! Join us on for one of our testimony writing workshops where local experts will work with you to be prepared.
We’ll help you:
✅ Understand the key requirements to ensure your testimony is heard
✅ Add important technical details to your personal story
✅ Equip yourself to advocate effectively against the landfill expansion

All workshops will start at 7 p.m. & go until roughly 9:00 p.m. We ask that you attend the beginning of whichever workshop you choose so you can get an overview of the process. We will be available to work one-on-one with you.
