CURB is a Member of the Newly Formed Westchester Coalition for Clean Water (WCCW)
The Westchester Coalition For Clean Water (WCCW) announced its formation on June 29th at the Summer Riverfront Kickoff event at Habirshaw Park.
The coalition is committed to achieving, maintaining, and protecting clean water in all of Westchester’s waterways for all community members now and for the future. It has formed to push for greater actions by Westchester County and local governments on issues including water pollution from our sewers, flooding from stormwater, safe fishing and shellfishing and increasing access to our waterfronts. WCCW is calling for all waterways in Westchester to be clean and healthy, free of trash and sewage, and flood resilient within 10 years.
CURB is a founding member of the coalition that currently includes CURB, Riverkeeper, Federated Conservationists of Westchester County, Groundwork Hudson Valley, Bronx River Alliance, the Citizens Advisory Committee of the Long Island Sound Study, Yonkers Paddling and Rowing Club, and Beczak Environmental Education Center.
