Forest Guardians’ Wild Forests, Wild Waters campaign seeks to use the Clean Water Act to designate streams and rivers within 1.7 million acres of roadless national forests in New Mexico as Outstanding National Resource Waters. The designation would permanently protect the streams, and by extension, the surrounding forests. Forest Guardians is using our support to build public involvement in the campaign, and to focus on the recreational benefits of river and forest protection.
