The private-public benefit of the Council's work with farm and forest landowners is truly remarkable. To think that nine million people depend on a few hundred upstream landowners, to voluntarily and willingly do the right thing, those "things" that need to be done to keep water clean for all those downstream...it's amazing and a testament of how well this organization's programs work.
