TUALATIN RIVERKEEPERS
The Tualatin River was once a regional destination. After years of abuse it became the most polluted river in Oregon. While much has been accomplished, there remains a great deal of effort ahead to restore and protect the river and its tributaries.
Threats from activities that occur across the landscape: development, polluted runoff from farms, streets and clear cuts all continue to impact our water quality.
Tualatin Riverkeepers is the leading independent voice standing up for the river, streams and wetlands in our community. This effort must be maintained to protect our water, fish and wildlife. You can make a difference by becoming a member. Become a Member

Put Sustainable Stormwater on the MapTualatin Riverkeepers is working with several local agencies to promote sustainable stormwater projects that value rain as a resource, treat rain where it falls, and help to recharge the groundwater system. You can help by letting us know about sustainable stormwater projects in the Tualatin Valley. Metro will publish a map highlighting the best showcase projects this fall. On October 30, we will feature these projects at the Connect the Drops sustainable stormwater summit for elected officials and planning commissions.
