Spokane County Commissioner Amber Waldrep said the Spokane County Spotlight will feature Spokane County Environmental Services Administrator Ben Bridal and Spokane Riverkeeper Water Protector Caitlin Scott to discuss the Spokane Valley–Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer and a proposed renewal and expansion of the county's Aquifer Protection Area, which is on the Aug. 5 election ballot.

The segment, announced by Waldrep, will air on KSPS World. Waldrep introduced the guests and topic in a recorded opening for the program: "Join us for Spokane County Spotlight on KSPS World," she said.

The transcript of the opening identifies the participants and the ballot measure but does not record any policy decisions or votes. The program appearance is framed as a discussion; no formal county action was taken during the recorded introduction.

The article corrects the transcript's spelling of the aquifer name to the standard usage "Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer." Listeners seeking details about the Aquifer Protection Area measure should consult official county voter materials and the county's Environmental Services office for text and maps of the proposed renewal and expansion.
