CRWA/MyRWA Find-it & Fix-it Program

The CRWA has just announced its " Find-it and Fix-it Stormwater Program". In collaboration with the Mystic River Watershed Association, and with financial support from the Massachusetts Environmental Trust, the Find-it and Fix-it program will continue the CRWA's great activities identifying and remedying unwanted discharges into The Charles and its tributaries.

A mix of visual monitoring, water quality sampling, the Find-it/Fix-it program will work with local communities to make sure what's identified gets fixed.

Read all the details about the program HERE.
