Areas of Work
Our Mission
To maintain and improve surface water quality in the Pigeon River Watershed of Haywood County, North Carolina.
We accomplish this through two objectives directed at reducing nonpoint source pollution:
- Educating and focusing attention on the watershed as a natural, economic and recreational resource to be conserved and enhanced for this and future generations; and
- Working with public agencies, conservation interests, businesses, community groups, and public and private land owners to implement water quality improvement strategies.
