ROCHESTER HILLS, Mich. (AP) - A nonprofit group dedicated to protecting the Clinton River in southeastern Michigan is set to hold a volunteer training session for its Adopt-A-Stream program.
The training is scheduled for Wednesday at the Clinton River Watershed Council’s office in Rochester Hills.
The CRWC’s Adopt-A-Stream program empowers community members to protect local streams and rivers by monitoring their health.
After attending Wednesday’s session, volunteers will be assigned to sites based on their preferences. They will be supplied with the necessary equipment and sent out to gather information on physical characteristics and aquatic bug populations.
Volunteer teams visit their adoption sites and collect data twice a year - in May and October
The Clinton River watershed covers 760 square miles through four counties - Macomb, Oakland, Lapeer, and St. Clair.
