Little Falls Watershed Alliances is honored to be the recipient of two grants from the Montgomery County Watershed Restoration and Outreach Grant Program. One $33,000 grant will fund permeable pavement for the Overlook community pool to manage stormwater run-off that is causing considerable erosion and other problems in the Little Falls Stream Valley Park. A second $30,000 grant is for an innovative water quality monitoring project using autonomous environmental robots. The robots will be placed in the Little Falls and Willet Branches and transmit water quality data for analysis by student volunteers.
We are very excited to start working on these projects. More information will be posted on our website as the work progresses.
The grants are funded by the Montgomery County Water Quality Protection Fund.
