|
The goals of the WRWA are to help protect, enhance, and raise awareness of the environmental, cultural, and economic health of the water, land, and communities of the West River watershed. Further goals of the WRWA include the Saxtons River, and Williams River watersheds. A group of citizens and organizations, known as the West River Watershed Alliance Steering Committee, began meeting to develop community based watershed forums for the West River Watershed, in 1998 and 1999. The result of the public forums was an action plan that followed a holistic watershed approach to: define environmental, economic and educational issues; conduct scientific assessments and analysis; consider educational and public outreach programs; and promote community and government interaction to address issues. |
