  Adopt-a -Watershed http://www.adopt-a-watershed.org
 

Adopt-A-Watershed works to inspire students from kindergarten through twelfth grade with a sense of place in nature and in their community, an awareness that they can make a difference, and lifelong quest for knowledge about the environment. We do this by providing schools with an integrated, sequential, K-12 science curriculum focused on the local environment and emphasizing service in partnership with the community.

 

 

American Heritage Rivers Webpage

http://www.epa.gov/owow/heritage/rivers.html
 

The American Heritage Rivers initiative is an innovative response to help river communities that seek federal assistance and other resources to meet some tough challenges. Without any new regulations on private property owners, state, local and tribal governments, the American Heritage Rivers initiative is about making more efficient and effective use of existing federal resources, cutting red-tape, and lending a helping hand.

  The Center for Watershed Protection http://www.cwp.org/
 

Founded in 1992, the Center for Watershed Protection is a non-profit 501(c)3 corporation that provides local governments, activists, and watershed organizations around the country with the technical tools for protecting some of the nation’s most precious natural resources: our streams, lakes and rivers. The Center has developed and disseminated a multi-disciplinary strategy to watershed protection that encompasses watershed planning, watershed restoration, stormwater management, watershed research, better site design, education and outreach, and watershed training.

 

 

The Stormwater Manager’s Resource Center

http://www.stormwatercenter.net
 

The Stormwater Manager's Resource Center is designed specifically for stormwater practitioners, local government officials and others that need technical assistance on stormwater management issues. Created and maintained by the Center for Watershed Protection, the SMRC has everything managers need to know about stormwater in a single site.

What is a Watershed?

 

  Friends of the River http://www.friendsoftheriver.org/
 

Friends of the River was founded in 1973 during the struggle to save the Stanislaus River from New Melones Dam. Following that campaign, the organization grew to become California's statewide river conservation group. Friends of the River is dedicated to preserving, protecting, and restoring California's rivers, streams, and their watersheds. The organization accomplishes its mission by providing public education, citizen activist training and organizing, and expert advocacy to influence public policy decisions on land, water, and energy management issues.

 

  Global Development Research Center – Online Resources on Urban Watersheds http://www.gdrc.org/uem/water/watershed/
 

The issues of managing urban water supply, wastewater and stormwater can be examined from a broad, integrated perspective, by looking at cities as 'urban watersheds' (including pollution of water resources, surface run-off, rainwater harvesting from urban structures, etc.). This will also help in studying cities as 'metabolic units' - defined in terms of inputs/outputs and material balance, as well as life cycle cost.

 

  International Rivers Network http://www.irn.org/index.html
 

IRN supports local communities working to protect their rivers and watersheds. We work to  halt destructive river development projects, and to encourage equitable and sustainable methods of meeting needs for water, energy and flood management.

 

 

National Watershed Network

The National Watershed Network is a registry of locally led watershed partnerships working to meet local goals through voluntary actions.

 

 

River Network

http://www.rivernetwork.org/
 

River Network's Mission is to help people understand, protect and restore rivers and their watersheds. River Network was founded in 1988 with the conviction that the solutions to river degradation are primarily local and must be created by citizen action watershed by watershed. While working for the Trust for Public Land in New Mexico, Phil Wallin led the campaign to protect the Rio Chama from a Corps of Engineers project. He felt that nonprofit river groups suffered because there was nowhere to turn for help in starting up their organization.

 

  Three Rivers Second Nature http://3r2n.cfa.cmu.edu/
 

3 Rivers 2nd Nature (3r2n) is a five-year project that addresses the meaning, form and function of the three rivers and 53 streams of Allegheny County in Western Pennsylvania. This project builds on the success of strategic creative inquiry, ecosystem analysis and community dialogue developed by the STUDIO for Creative Inquiry through the Nine Mile Run Watershed project. 3 Rivers 2nd Nature consists of an interdisciplinary team of artists, scientists and a policy expert, collaborating on an innovative study of the green and blue infrastructure of the region's river systems. (Green and blue infrastructure refers to the structural elements of a naturally functioning river ecosystem). The project addresses aquatic, terrestrial and social issues of our rivers and streams. From these 3 subject areas our goal is to produce strategic knowledge that helps citizens and decision makers understand the evolving opportunities of our post-industrial waterfront.

The Watershed Management Council

http://watershed.org/
 

The Watershed Management Council is a non-profit organization whose members represent a broad range of watershed management interests and disciplines. Membership includes professionals, students, teachers, and individuals whose interest is in promoting proper watershed management.

 

 

The Waterfront Center

http://www.waterfrontcenter.org/
 

The Waterfront Center, a non-profit education and urban planning organization, was formed in 1981 in the belief that waterfronts -- where the land meets the ocean, bay, lake, river or canal -- are unique, finite resources. Like the cities they help define, urban waterfronts are dynamic places, undergoing profound change. Waterfronts often represent the best opportunity for community enhancement and enrichment. Our mission is to assist communities and the professions in making the wisest and best long-term uses of waterfront resources for maximum public benefit.

EPA Sustainable Riverbanks Project on the Connecticut River

http://epa.gov/region01/eco/ctriver
 

EPA has awarded the Connecticut River Joint Commissions (CRJC) three separate grants ($100k) to implement the EPA Sustainable Riverbanks project. CRJC has completed an exhaustive inventory of riverbank erosion sites along the main stem of the Connecticut River in New Hampshire and Vermont. Along with developing an erosion inventory methodology, CRJC and their partners have developed a prioritization protocol for implementing erosion site remediation projects with a strong preference toward "soft" engineering practices. CRJC completed their first erosion abatement project on the Connecticut at the Hook Farm in Brunswick, VT.
