What We Do

Coosa Riverkeeper is a multi-faceted organization monitoring water quality, advocating for the river, and promoting compliance with environmental laws. Our staff Riverkeeper Frank Chitwood actively patrols the watershed by boat and plane, as well as speaks to local groups about the river.

Who We Work With

Coosa Riverkeeper isn't alone in the fight for clean water in the Coosa Valley or Alabama. We work closely with other groups.

We are members of Waterkeeper Alliance, the Tri-State Conservation Coalition, and Protect Forever Wild Coalition.

In the Coosa Valley we work with the Friends of Big Canoe Creek and Alabama Rivers Alliance.

In Alabama we are joined by fellow Waterkeepers: Black Warrior Riverkeeper, Cahaba Riverkeeper, Choctawhatchee Riverkeeper, Hurricane Creekkeeper, Mobile Baykeeper, and Tennessee Riverkeeper.
