Natchaug Conservation Action Planning (CAP)
A series of planning workshops to implement priority conservation needs in the Natchaug Watershed. The team organizing this effort is led by The Nature Conservancy, and also includes The Green Valley Institute, Joshua's Trust, WINCOG, and NECOG. This effort includes three workshops, to be held between October 2008 and March 2009. The first workshop will address identification of conservation targets. The following two workshops identify threats to the conservation targets and strategies for protection. See the Overview of the CAP Process below for more details.

NWC believes that an important way to protect our rivers and lakes is to enable residents and visitors to fall in love with them. The quality and integrity of the land that supports our water is important for those who enjoy it by hiking, biking, paddling and fishing -- as well as for everyone in the watershed that drinks water.Other NWC Articles
