America's Most Endangered Rivers Action Alerts

The Endangered Upper Delaware River Needs Your Help

The Upper Delaware River provides drinking water for over 17 million people. Multinational energy companies are poised to begin drilling wells to access the gas in the Marcellus Shale using a process that will have an irreversible, detrimental impact on the environment and the area's tourism industry. Tell the DRBC to protect the Wild and Scenic river basin by not issuing permits without a study.
Act Now


The Endangered Teton River Needs Your Help

Tell the Idaho state government and Bureau of Reclamation to promote more cost-effective, reliable water supply solutions that focus on conservation and smarter water management instead of rebuilding the Teton Dam - which failed catastrophically 35 years ago.
Act Now


The Endangered Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta Needs Your Help

Tell Governor Schwarzenegger to advance river restoration, public safety, and water supply reliability, and not to let powerful interests perpetuate the failed policies of the past.
Act Now


The Endangered Monongahela River Needs Your Help

Tell the Ohio River Valley Water Sanitation Commission, and the states of Pennsylvania and West Virginia, to act to prohibit water quality degradation associated with Marcellus Shale drilling to protect the region’s clean water for future generations.
Act Now


The Endangered Little River Needs Your Help

The Little River is a critical resource to the surrounding communities and home to numerous rare and beautiful animals. Unfortunately, the future of the river is dim, threatened with destruction through submersion behind a new, unnecessary dam. Tell Raleigh Public Utilities no new reservoir!
Act Now


The Endangered Gauley River Needs Your Help

The Gauley is famous for whitewiter and also supports trout and bass, but is scarred by coal mining and subjected to degradation from ongoing mining activity. Mountaintop removal mining flattens mountaintops, buries streams under debris, and pollutes water. Tell the EPA to stop permitting mine activity that harms the clean water and natural areas essential to Appalachian communities.
Act Now


The Endangered Coosa River Needs Your Help

Tell the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to meet its responsibility and insist on strong protections for the Coosa River's endangered wildlife in the license that will allow Alabama Power Company to operate the seven large hydropower dams for the next 50 years.
Act Now


The Endangered Chetco River Needs Your Help

This wild salmon refuge is threatened by dredge mine proposals, despite more than half of the river being regulated under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act by the U.S. Forest Service. Because of the 1872 Mining Law, the Forest Service claims it has no authority to prohibit any mining activity. Tell the Obama administration to act now!
Act Now


The Endangered Cedar River Needs Your Help

Tell the Army Corps of Engineers to prioritize lower cost, non-structural flood management solutions on the Cedar River. These natural solutions will help reduce flood damage, improve water quality, restore fish and wildlife habitat, and provide recreational opportunities and economic benefits while saving taxpayer dollars.
