Hydropower Reform Coalition
Founded in 1992, the Coalition is a consortium of national, state, and local conservation and recreation organizations working to reform national hydropower policies and to achieve improvements to rivers altered by hydropower dams.

Between 2000 and 2010, hundreds of rivers will have the chance to be restored by changing the way dams operate. The Coalition and its members play a prominent role in dam licensing to ensure that the health and welfare of our nation's rivers are restored and protected.

American Rivers
American Rivers is a national non-profit conservation organization, with a membership of over 30,000, dedicated to protecting and restoring healthy natural rivers and the variety of life they sustain for people, fish, and wildlife.

Founded in 1973 to increase the number of rivers protected by the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System and to prevent the construction of large new dams on our last wild rivers, today, in addition to protecting nationally significant rivers, American Rivers' programs focus on dam removal and reform; river channel engineering; allocation of water resources; and threats to watersheds. Along with conservation efforts, American Rivers promotes public awareness about why healthy rivers matter--not only for fish and wildlife, kayakers, canoeists, and anglers, but for our own communities.
