Town of Hilton Head Island issued the following announcement on October 22.
Local volunteers are needed to help monitor our waterways. Brian Eber, the Town of Hilton Head Island's Water Quality Administrator, explains the South Carolina Adopt-a-Stream (SC AAS) program and the need for volunteers here locally.
SC AAS creates a network of watershed stewardship, engagement, and education through involvement. Volunteers can play an important role in monitoring and tracking water quality while sharing information about local water resources with their communities. In providing baseline information about stream conditions, volunteers, local communities, educators, and local government agencies can partner to protect and restore our waters.
You do not need to be an environmentalist, fisherman, or scholar to join this effort. All are welcome to find out more information, seek training, and add to the knowledge base of river health in South Carolina!
