Act to Protect Kentucky's Waters

Kentucky's waters need your help.  Bacteria, excess nutrients, and other pollutants threaten the safety of our waters for wildlife, fishermen, and swimmers.  Can you help protect them?

Our state does not have the capacity to make sure our water is clean, especially in these challenging economic times.  It is critical that folks like you volunteer to test streams and rivers in the Licking River Watershed to make sure our waters are safe.

You can make a difference in the quality of Kentucky's waters.  Join us as we train volunteers to test streams and rivers in the Licking River Watershed.  The data we collect identifies problem areas in our waterbodies so that they can be fixed.

Sign up today for a water quality training near you!
