Welcome to the Clean Water Act, and Region 1's 303(d) Program website
We help the States, territories and tribes identify polluted rivers, lakes and bays and their causes of pollution, and write plans to clean them up.
We are two of the important steps (pdf) EPA and the States follow in the Clean Water Act to clean up water pollution in the United States.
Our bodies average 60% water (babies are 70%), and 71% of the Earth is covered by water. We're protecting the water for ourselves, our children and our grandchildren.
