Red Rock Watershed Monitoring Program

INACTIVE
During 2024 program updates, James Waxe from TNC indicated that those running the program have left, no data has been collected since 2021 or 2022 and it can be removed from the list. I am unclear however whether this program had previously been marked inactive.

Summary of Monitoring Objectives:
We are partnering with MT DEQ to collect data from rivers and streams in the Red Rock Watershed to help establish baseline in some areas and in others collect data for TMDL purposes. We collected data in 2016 on our own and have now expanded our efforts by partnering with DEQ.
