Proctor Creek Water Quality Improvement Plan Moves Forward

DWM's Bureau of Watershed Protection is working with the Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) and interested individuals to create a water quality improvement plan for Proctor Creek. Located in Northwest Atlanta, Proctor Creek crosses several Neighborhood Planning Unit boundaries, residential areas and industrial areas. ARC and DWM have conducted three streamwalking events in which volunteers traverse the waterway in search of obvious pollution sources. The data collected will be used to create a formal plan to improve the stream's overall water quality. For more information about the plan or to volunteer for stream maintenance projects or water quality monitoring, contact Julie Todd, jtodd@atlantaga.gov.
