Water Quality

If you are at home can you still impact water quality?  Yes! You do not need to be near a river to protect the river. Your home is part of the watershed and what you do at home, or at work, or at the park, or anywhere can impact water quality. There are lots of simple ways to have a positive impact on our waterways. Small changes make a big impact when we all work together. Together, we can create a clean water legacy! See Our Video Here
