Advocacy

The Eno River Association advocates for parkland and natural area protection, water quality preservation, and community planning that incorporates efficient and environmentally sound land use, water use, and transportation systems. Our goal is to increase public appreciation for the environment and awareness of environmental threats, and to change outcomes that would otherwise threaten important natural areas in the Eno River watershed.

The Association works with local, state and federal government and with other conservation organizations to conserve and protect the environment as a whole and the Eno River basin in particular.  In particular, we work to mobilize our base of friends and members to take action and share their voices to protect the Eno.

How to Help:

There are a few ways you can be an active advocate for the Eno, with many taking just a few minutes to do.

  • Contact your representatives and ask them to support the Eno
  • Register to vote
  • Follow the meetings and minutes of the Durham City-County Planning Department and the Orange County Planning and Inspections Department to alert us to issues that might affect the Eno
  • Volunteer
  • Donate
  • Join a neighborhood association or group, and ask them to support and protect the Eno
  • Learn about climate resiliency, water quality, and responsible management of land and water

  • Craft responses/positions for incoming development threats & opportunities
  • Monitor incoming development projects; update and mobilize staff, board, volunteers when needed
