DEM is holding a public workshop to present and discuss the draft Aquidneck Island Watershed Plan which provides a broader roadmap to protect and restore water quality across Aquidneck Island.

The draft Aquidneck Island Watershed Plan provides a framework for managing efforts to both restore water quality in degraded areas and to protect overall watershed health. Watershed plans assist states and municipalities in addressing nonpoint source pollution by providing a comprehensive assessment of nonpoint source pollution and a set of management measures to address it.
