Overview
Mission
The North Fork/South Platte River Foundation is a grassroots group of stakeholders who are striving to improve and maintain the management of the river's riparian habitat, channel habitat, water quality, and instream flows through the collaboration of local organizations, mine reclamation, and community education. Results of improved management will benefit wildlife, recreationists, and local economies.
What it reported doing in 2012
The Foundation has conducted meetings within the Bailey Colorado community with landowners and stakeholders to define the issues facing the North Fork of the South Platte and to work toward the common goal of reducing/removing hazardous heavy metals, chemicals, and other toxins from the North Fork watershed. The meetings have totaled 3-15 attendees.
