Middle Nolichucky Watershed Alliance

MNWA has been officially dissolved, and the website will no longer be available. This page will remain for historical purposes and to guide you to additional resources. Thank you to all our shareholders that have desired to protect the Middle Nolichucky Watershed for the past 24 years. This community means the world to us.

Please reach out to a similar organization such as Little River Watershed Association (Knoxville, TN) with inquires about how to protect and enjoy your local watershed.

Be blessed!
