River Conservation Corps
 
 
 
The Uncompahgre Watershed Partnership (UWP) exists to help protect the natural, scenic, and economic values of the Upper Uncompahgre River Watershed, from its headwaters to the northern Ouray County line. Among other objectives, UWP is focused on improving the understanding of watershed health and evaluating changes through time by monitoring and analyzing conditions in the watershed. The River Conservation Corps member will be working with UWP staff and volunteers, as well as several of our local partners: Colorado River Watch, Colorado Data Sharing Network, Ouray County Public Health Office, Colorado Water Conservation Board, and American Rivers.
