Profile:

Mission: Monday Creek Restoration Project (MCRP) is a partnership committed to improving watershed health for the benefit of the community.

The partnership was formed in November 1994.

The Monday Creek Watershed encompasses 116 square miles in portions of Athens, Hocking and Perry Counties. MCRP is sponsored by Rural Action, a membership-based, non-profit organization working to revitalize Appalachian Ohio.

Types of water quality impairments in the Monday Creek Watershed include acid mine drainage, improperly treated wastewater, sedimentation and illegally-dumped trash. Our most recent restoration project was the installation of a doser in Jobs Hollow. Volunteer opportunities include tree plantings and trash clean ups.

"Friends of Monday Creek" meetings are held at the Monday Creek office on the third Thursday of January, March, May, July, September and November at 6 p.m. Please call to confirm the meeting time and place.
