Watersheds
About the program
Our Watershed Program focuses on nature, community, and economy in our area’s watersheds, with a primary focus on the Upper Mokelumne River watershed. We advocate for sound planning and policies to restore and sustain the health of our creeks, rivers, and forests, along with sustainable water planning. We are guided by river and watershed principles and infrastructure principles as well as our mission, vision, and core values.
