Get Involved! Help Restore Your Stream

The objective of this website is not only to provide information on the health of Maryland's streams, but perhaps more importantly, to direct individuals, schools, watershed and community organizations, businesses, Boy and Girl Scout Troops, and anyone else, to the resources they need to take action to protect and restore their stream. We all live within 15 minutes of a stream, and what we do on our land directly affects the health of that stream and, ultimately, the Bay. We encourage you to go to the links on the right to get more information on how to survey your stream, technical guidance on restoration actions, and links to stream restoration funding opportunities. Most importantly - get involved!

Message From the Governor
The health of the Bay is ultimately determined by what we do on the land -- in our cities and towns, on our farms and forests, in our schools and backyards. The 10,000 miles of streams that run through our communities can deliver either clean water or pollutants to the Bay. It’s our Bay and it’s our choice.
Thank you for choosing to get involved in improving the health of your stream and our Bay.
