GREAT NEWS FOR SOUTH RIVER HEADWATERS!

$50,000 Grant to River Trust

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation has awarded a $50,000 grant to the Scenic Rivers Land Trust. This grant will support the South River Greenway Project - a comprehensive land protection, restoration and community outreach project being developed by the Trust and the South River Federation, along with the Biophilia Foundation, the Trust for Public Land, Anne Arundel County government, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Scenic Rivers Land Trust was one of 34 recipients in the Chesapeake Bay Small Watershed Grants Program.

South River Federation has begun bacteria testing for community beaches. Click on the link above to learn how your community can sign up.

We have reached our capacity for sampling, so Operation Clearwater is closed for new sites in 2008. This is a popular program, so be sure to sign up early for the 2009 season!
