WATERSHED PROTECTION - WE IDENTIFY SOURCES OF POLLUTION AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO STOP THEM. WE REGULARLY PATROL THE RIVERS WE WORK TO PROTECT. WE RESPOND TO TIPS AND COMPLAINTS. WE REVIEW PAPER RECORDS - LIKE DISCHARGE MONITORING REPORTS AND INSPECTION REPORTS - TO DETERMINE WHETHER VIOLATIONS HAVE OCCURRED. WE COLLECT EVIDENCE - WATER QUALITY SAMPLES, PHOTOGRAPHS, VIDEOS, VICTIM'S INTERVIEWS, AND BUILD THE CASE WE NEED TO STOP THE POLLUTION. AND WE ORGANIZE - WE LISTEN TO COMMUNITIES ALONG THE RIVER AND WORK WITH THEM TO STOP THE PROBLEMS ABOUT WHICH THEY CARE THE MOST. WE BUILT GRASSROOTS SUPPORT FOR CLEAN WATER THROUGH STEWARDSHIP -- RIVERPALOOZA AND RIOPALOOZA.
