There is a watershed association in most major watersheds in Westmoreland County. Each association undertakes specific projects to enhance the quality of its local area — by reducing pollution, protecting open space, promoting good stewardship of woodlands, and so on.

Some of these associations have been in existance for decades, while others are just getting their feet wet. All of them depend on members and concerned citizens who care about conservation and the quality of the local environment, and are willing to get involved in helping to enhance, conserve, and preserve our natural resources.
