Description
Maui's watershed needs our help. It has become degraded due to poor soil management, overgrazing on uplands and ranchlands, and damage from feral ungulates that have degraded the catchment basins. In many parts of the uplands, the native forests and vegetation are gone and the soil is disturbed which causes increased stormwater runoff and unchecked erosion. This causes mud floods in the coastal flood plains that are constantly threatening neighborhoods, roads, and polluting the ocean. Our watersheds deserve better protection and support from the community and the administration. Please help us speak up for our watersheds.
