What We Do

Assessing the biological health and monitoring the water quality of local rivers and streams that flow into the Chesapeake Bay.

Conserving land by improving land use and development practices and promoting conservation easements.

Helping residents and businesses understand and reduce their energy consumption without imperiling lifestyle.

Managing and maintaining trails and RACC owned property to create a healthy natural environment where visitors can enjoy nature.

Working with many local organizations toward the common goal of protecting our environment by preventing waste.

Organizing volunteers around the county to clean up our roads, rivers and trails to help protect our waterways and habitat for all our residents.
