Herring Run
The Herring Run Watershed Association (HRWA) began in 1978 as the Friends of Northeast Parks and Streams. Originally a park-focused organization, HRWA has directed its attention and action to watershed restoration for more than ten years. HRWA is one of only five watershed organizations in the greater Baltimore area and serves approximately 150,000 people in northeast Baltimore City and parts of Baltimore County.
Restoration Progress
Our restoration activities are focused in the main branches and subwatersheds of the Herring Run watershed through the creation and implementation of watershed action plans. These plans may include actions that residents can take, riparian buffer planting and rain garden installation, and impervious surface reduction and removal where possible.
