the Clear Creek Watershed Foundation: pioneering new approaches to sustainable watershed management.

Group 2: Natural Resource Management

The goal of the projects in this group is to manage the natural resources in the watershed so as to protect Clear Creek from possible contamination or natural disasters. Natural resource management can range from reducing the effects of flooding/erosion and wildfire to preventing hazardous waste spills into the creek, all of which can have devastating effects on water quality.
