Lower Olentangy Watershed Action Plan
To show residents how to work towards a healthy watershed, Friends of the Lower Olentangy Watershed (FLOW) helped create The Lower Olentangy Watershed Action Plan. The plan - endorsed by the Ohio EPA and the ODNR in 2005 - identifies goals and strategies for improving water quality and protecting the natural systems of our watershed.
We encourage you to read the Action Plan to discover what we hope to accomplish and find out how you can help. Many of the action items focus on projects that can be carried out by small groups and individuals.
