Resources for article on Prince William Sound Regional Citizens' Advisory Council
I am an employee of the council and therefore have a conflict of interest. I placed a request for a new article on the Requested Articles - Non-profits page. If you are here thinking of helping, you are awesome. I would start this myself, but also understand and appreciate needing to avoid conflicts of interest. Thank you.

The basics: The Prince William Sound Regional Citizens’ Advisory Council is an independent non-profit organization whose mission is to promote environmentally safe operation of Alyeska Pipeline’s Valdez Marine Terminal and associated oil tankers. The council was formed after the Exxon Valdez oil spill to provide a voice for communities affected by oil industry decisions in Prince William Sound, the Gulf of Alaska, and Cook Inlet.
