for the Hydropower Reform Coalition
Founded in 1992, the Hydropower Reform Coalition (a fiscally sponsored project of American Rivers), is a diverse consortium of more than 160 national, regional, and local conservation and recreation organizations dedicated to protecting and restoring rivers affected by hydropower dams. Working together, the coalition has protected or restored thousands of river miles, thousands of acres of watershed land, and countless opportunities for boating, fishing, and other recreational experiences.
