This chapter examines the water quality and resources of the 370-mile-long Green River and the surrounding wetlands, reservoirs, and streams. This river demonstrates the interrelation between geology, soils, climate, hydrology, and vegetation and their impact on aquatic life such as mussels, fish, and crustaceans. Conservation programs such as the Mississippi River Basin Health Watersheds Initiative and the Green River Bioreserve provide numerous opportunities to protect the Green River Basin and other watersheds throughout the Commonwealth from unnecessary pollution and damage.
