The Dorchester Watershed Action Committee (DWAC) is interested in projects and activities to protect and improve the health of the Dorchester watershed. The Committee’s goal is to educate and engage the community in naturalization projects, through collaboration with landowners, municipalities and agencies. The DWAC holds meetings every month (except July and August). New members are always welcome! Are you interested in:

  • Joining the Dorchester Watershed Action Committee,
  • Attending an upcoming meeting or event,
  • Getting your class involved in a Communities for Nature project or the Watershed Report Card Program,
  • Rehabilitating a section of the creek on your property, or
  • Retiring portions of your fields?
