League of Women Voters of Coos County Study International Port of Coos Bay

The LWVCC has conducted comprehensive studies of the Port of Coos Bay beginning in 1960, and the studies have been reviewed and updated on approximately 20-year intervals. The League’s previous study completion dates were 1962, 1981, and 2000.  The LWVCC studies are comprehensive, and they are shared with the state League leadership and elsewhere. The League conducts these formal studies to create its local position, and also issues reports that present current information about important subjects.

The League held its first public meeting regarding its study of the Port of Coos Bay in 2022 (see link below for that meeting's recording on YouTube).  Our 2nd meeting was held this year on Saturday, January 21st and a recording on YouTube is available for viewing as well (see below).  Anyone interested in the work of the League is invited to view these sessions.

The League of Women Voters of Coos County have now finished their update on its advocacy position on the International Port of Coos Bay and a recording of that final update meeting held on Earth Day, April 22, 2023 is now available to view.  The final reporting of the study committee has been approved by the membership and the statement of findings of its position can be viewed here.  You can access the results of the full study here
