Hiwassee River Watershed Coalition

The organization works with local landowners, governments, schools and businesses to recognize and address threats to our water resources. With a staff of knowledgeable professionals, the Coalition plans and implements volunteer-powered projects to solve problems before water quality is beyond reasonable recovery. The Coalition also conducts education programs for all ages about water quality concerns and what individuals can do to help. The leadership believes that for water resources to truly be protected, citizens must understand and participate in protection and restoration efforts; however, the organization does not get involved political campaign advocacy
