MISSION STATEMENT



Along with the member governments (who have land in the watershed under their jurisdiction) and hundreds of individual and business members and volunteers, the Huron River Watershed Council inspires attitudes, behaviors, and economies that protect, rehabilitate, and sustain the Huron River System.



HRWC was established in 1965 under Michigan's Local River Management Act. We are the first and oldest Watershed Council in the State. Our Services include hands-on citizen education, technical assistance in policy development and river protection projects. HRWC is a not-for-profit organization under section 501(c)(3) of the federal tax code. HRWC is a member of EarthShare of Michigan.



HRWC Educational Resources



HRWC maintains an extensive library of over 1,000 titles covering A (aquatic insects) to Z (zebra mussels) and other water resource topics such as: the Great Lakes, land use, groundwater, environmental education activities, conservation easements, and wetlands. We also have videos for use in the classroom, home, or civic organization. The library is open for use in HRWC's office to everyone who wishes to use it and members enjoy borrowing privileges.
