Mission
The mission of the 30 Mile River Watershed Association (30 Mile) is to work as a community for clean and healthy lakes, ponds and streams in our watershed. Since 2008, 30 Mile has led efforts to protect these waters from the growing threats of invasive species, development, and climate change.30 Mile partners with local lake associations and towns to protect over 20 lakes and ponds, implementing a wide variety of programs and initiatives that could not be done by a single group alone. 30 Mile also partners with lake organizations around the state to advocate for statewide environmental protections and support. Our lakes and ponds are public treasures that provide valuable economic, recreational, social, and emotional value to residents and visitors. Now, more than ever, these fragile places are facing their greatest threats from invasive species, watershed development, and climate change.
