The Skagit Environmental Endowment Commission (SEEC) is an American-Canadian commission that oversees the watershed of the upper Skagit River in Canada and the United States. Its job is to use an endowment fund to promote education about the watershed and enhance its recreation, land management and ecosystem management.
The Commission derives from the 1984 High Ross Dam Treaty between the two countries. In this treaty, Seattle City Light agreed for 80 years not to raise its High Ross Dam in Washington state on the Skagit River. This addition would have flooded thousands of acres of wilderness land in British Columbia, raising opposition in Canada.
