If you would like, you may click on the picture below for a short introduction video to the Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative.
The Middle Eel River Watershed Intiative began in 2009 as a result of Manchester University's committment to it's students and the environment. Thanks to the Environmental Studies Program of the Biology Department of Manchester University, the Initiative is able to work toward the goals outlined in the Watershed Management Plan. Goals include: improving water quality, enhancing recreational opportunities, and promoting conservation of natural resources within the Middle Eel River Watershed.
The water quality monitoring program of the Initiative provides an outstanding opportunity for Manchester University students to gain valuable field and research experience. Over the past four years,19 students have gained summer employment, and some students have even gained academic credit, working as Watershed Technicians for the Initiative.
We are very proud to introduce our past Watershed Technicians listed below!
