About Us
 
ACWP Mission Statement:  Bringing interested citizens and water users together through a neutral forum in order to identify water related issues and challenges and become part of the solution for long-term water quality improvement and conservation in a non-regulatory way.

The Alabama Clean Water Partnership, a statewide 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, is a diverse and inclusive coalition of public-private interest groups and individuals working together to improve, protect and preserve water resources and aquatic ecosystems in Alabama. Through the ACWP, ten River Basin Facilitators and a Statewide Coordinator are tasked with implementing watershed efforts in order to achieve the following goals:
 
Improved Communication to promote information sharing and nonpoint source education, broad awareness of resource availability, and networking with others facing the same challenges.
Data and Information Sharing through the creation of a communications and technical assistance network so that a more complete account of each river’s water quality is available when making watershed decisions.
Improved Coordination between community-based groups, municipalities, and industries to prevent the duplication of effort and to acquire, streamline and maximize resources.
Opportunity for Collaboration in decision-making and the development of watershed management plans, as well as in the implementation of watershed projects and TMDLs (Total Maximum Daily Loads).
