Find out what's happening in your community watershed
Why is it important?
You affect the watershed and it affects you! The choices you make as you work, live and play in your community affect watershed health.
Click on the map icon to see a map of the community watersheds that are part of the Upper Fresno River watershed. You can follow the links to find out more about what is happening in each community watershed.
We’ve also included a link to an information resource: Welcome to the Foothills. This document contains useful information that will help you understand and preserve our watershed resources.
