Links

Not all rivers have a local river organization, and not all states have a statewide river organization. Sometimes it is an environmental organization, boating club or government agency that is the voice for rivers. Listed below are some links to national environmental organizations and government agencies. For links to grassroots river and watershed organizations, or to find a watershed organization in your area, you can search the online National River and Watershed Directory. The Directory contains over 4,000 river and watershed organizations and agencies from across the U.S and is updated regularly.
