Kalamazoo River Protection Association Mission Statement

MISSION STATEMENT

Founded In June of 1977, the Kalamazoo River Protection Association (KRPA), has become an effective advocate for natural resources conservation and environmental awareness. The KRPA is committed to restoring the recreational and tourism potential of the Kalamazoo River, a major economic lifeline in our communities. The KRPA is dedicated to raising public awareness of the critica

l ecological issues affecting the watershed and to advocate strongly for the protection and preservation of the great biological diversity of the watershed’s natural resources, including its forest, wetlands, dunes and other ecologically sensitive areas. The KRPA mission is to bring about a timely clean up of one of the United States most contaminated “Superfund sites”, an 80 mile stretch of river containing over four million cubic yards of contaminated river sediments containing approximately 250,000 pounds of PCB’s (polychlorinated biphenyls) and to hold the polluters accountable for the cost of the needed remedial actions to restore our river.
