Our Mission To protect and improve the 28 lakes and streams of the Cobbossee Watershed.
The Cobbossee Watershed has 28 lakes and streams within its 217-square mile area - beginning at Torsey Lake in Mount Vernon and ending in the Gardiner portion of Cobbossee Stream. Our efforts continue to focus on two separate, yet equally significant, threats facing the Cobbossee Watershed:
1. Non-Point Source (NPS) Pollution
2. Invasive Aquatic Plants (IAP)
Our MIL-FOILER program consists of various strategies to deal with menaces. You can help! To Find out how, please visit our site.
