Over the River is an oral interview and history project focused on 5 watersheds: Upper Mississippi, Klamath, NYC Watershed, Rio Grande, and Chattahoochee Rivers. We seek interviews with people who have been working on watershed issues in these areas, preference for those working 10 to 20 or more years.
