Watershed Projects and “Friends of” Groups

Empowering communities and youth

The UTRCA works with many partners and “Friends of” groups to improve the health of local watersheds.

Upper Thames River Watershed Report Cards

Many of the watershed projects use information in the UTRCA’s Watershed Report Cards to target their activities. Every five years, the UTRCA develops a report card for each of the 28 watersheds within the Upper Thames River watershed. Each report card assesses environmental conditions within that particular watershed, grades the surface water quality and forest conditions, summarizes watershed features, and provides an action plan.

2022 Upper Thames River Watershed Report Cards cover page, consisting of the title, coloured circles, photos of fish and flowers, and the UTRCA logo
