Some developers are ignoring or breaking environmental laws when they bulldoze the land and build on it. This fall, learn
to identify those types of sites and report them to the Potomac and Shenandoah Riverkeepers. We’ll take your work and use
it to enforce the law!
The current state of runaway development is unsustainable--the amount of developed land in the Potomac Watershed has
doubled over the past 40 years! Help make sure our rivers and streams are protected.
