- Description:
- The mission of the Massachusetts Riverways Program is to promote the restoration and protection of the ecological integrity of the Commonwealth's watersheds: rivers, streams and adjacent lands. The Riverways Program was established within the Mass. Dept. of Fisheries and Wildlife in 1987 in recognition that river and stream corridors are a crucial component of the state's ecological infrastructure and that protection of these watershed resources could not be accomplished through land acquisition alone. The Riverways Program was created to encourage and support citizen, community and other local river protection initiatives as a vital complement to state action.
