Orient Association Mission Orient Associations mission is to provide forums for the people of Orient to learn about the issues that affect them and to express their views and concerns about those issues. Our goal is to find constructive approaches to improve our community and to help solve the problems that we face. The Orient Water Project Water Project Orient sits atop a single thin freshwater aquifer and is surrounded by beautiful productive bays and estuaries. Unfortunately both our groundwater and our surface waters have been degraded over the past halfcentury and both face significant threats going forward.
