Abstract
Founded in 1953, the Farmington River Watershed Association has been working six decades to protect the River that connects us all and to restore the natural resources of the watershed. FRWA’s Water Quality Monitoring Project was launched in 2004, after the release of the “State of the Watershed” report which analyzed water quality, impediments to flow, and other stressors on the river and its tributaries. The program assesses the health of the Farmington River by (1) establishing a baseline of water quality information, (2) identifying long and short term changes in water quality and land use, and (3) involving partners and educating residents of the Watershed.
