Upper Tennessee River Roundtable
Brian November 16th, 2005
I just got home from the Fall meeting of the Upper Tennessee River Roundtable in Lebanon. While I was at Emory & Henry College, I did an internship with the Department of Conservation of Recreation. A key component of that internship was working with the Roundtable.
Tonight was the first meeting I have been able to attend since putting in that work a few years ago and I was happy to see how much stronger it has become. The Roundtable’s Mission is:
[T]o achieve clean water throughout the watershed with the involvement of citizens in planning, education, coordination, attracting funding, and serving as an advocate for our water resources.
The UTRR, like other Roundtables across Virginia, have been successful bringing all stakeholders to the table and assisting smaller watershed groups.
