Welcome!
- The RI Bays, Rivers, and Watersheds Coordination Team is a state interagency commission whose mission is to define and implement interagency policies for the ecosystem-based management and sustainable development of Rhode Island's fresh and marine waters and watersheds.
- RI has received a $150,000 grant from NOAA to fund Project Clean Sweep.
Funding for this project will be used to remove large marine debris items within the initial project target areas (i.e., Greenwich Bay, Metro Bay, Bay Islands, and westside of Aquidneck Island). This exiciting project has approval to November 2008 and the permit can be extended if there is continued need. To report that may not already be listed, please contact the folks at Clean The Bay at 401-741-8749 or 401-413-3236. We can use your assistance in identifing marine debris that need to be removed. - Greenwich Bay Special Area Management Plan (SAMP)
