About
KWA envisions a Kentucky that sustains and celebrates our vast network of healthy waterways. Kentucky’s lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands support thriving aquatic ecosystems, healthy fish and wildlife populations, abundant recreation, and dependable, clean water supplies for future generations. KWA works with groups and communities to plan and complete watershed projects all over the state. This can mean writing an actual plan or implementing Best Management Practices or organizing creek cleanups. The objective is that our streams are healthy for people and wildlife now and in the future. KWA also advocates for better protections for cleaning up waterways and keeping them clean. This includes enforcement of current regulations, improvements to regulations, and fully funding programs that support monitoring and enforcement. We get our work done through partnerships with many groups, including US Fish & Wildlife Service and the National Wildlife Federation.
