Watersheds United Vermont (WUV) aims to support water quality enhancement projects in the state of Vermont, with a focus on design and implementation efforts that contribute to the health and sustainability of local watersheds. Funded by the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation’s Clean Water Initiative Program, WUV works to facilitate impactful environmental projects.
The WUV Dam Removal Design and Implementation Block Grant supports projects that advance the removal of dams to restore rivers and improve watershed health across Vermont. Guided by a commitment to ecological restoration, the program funds efforts that enhance aquatic habitat, reconnect river systems, and promote community resilience. By prioritizing collaborative, science-based approaches, the grant aims to achieve lasting benefits for both the environment and local communities.
