UPPER CUMBERLAND RIVER WATERSHED WATCH (UCWW)

Upper Cumberland River Watershed Watch (UCWW) is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to monitoring water quality in the Upper Cumberland River watershed. The Upper Cumberland watershed includes all rivers, lakes, and streams that are located upstream of where the Cumberland River enters Tennessee in Monroe County, Kentucky... The Upper Cumberland River Watershed Watch (UCWW) was formed in 1999 as an entirely volunteer-driven organization that performs a variety of chemical and microbial tests on streams in the Upper Cumberland watershed. Its members are people that live in or near the watershed and are concerned about the quality its water. It is said that if you want to measure the health of the land, judge the health of its streams. As streams pass over the landscape, they take on the characteristics of that environment. By testing the water, we can monitor the health of the surrounding land... UCWW is run entirely by volunteers and organizes water sampling events several times..
