Our Policies
COP
Communities depend on rivers for drinking water, recreation, and more. All these uses require rivers to be clean and unpolluted. American Rivers advocates for making rivers clean enough to swim and enjoy by implementing policies that address stormwater pollution and defending landmark legislation like the Clean Water Act. We advocate for stormwater financing approaches to develop funding streams for building stormwater infrastructure that address pollution.
