CORVN is a coalition of Washington State citizens working together to restore peace and safety to neighborhoods and wild areas which are disturbed by ORV (Off-Road Vehicle) use. |

- excessive noise
- dust and emissions
- damage to lands
- danger to wilderness users
- eyesores and reduced property values
- tensions between neighbors.
CORVN's goals include:
- more peaceful neighborhoods and natural areas
- safer neighborhoods and natural areas
- better enforcement and better laws against ORV nuisances
- support for ORV use where they will not disturb people, wildlife, land, or water.
