#SaveCleanWater

Each week, we feature a photo of a small stream that could lose protection if EPA changes the Clean Water Rule. By sharing a photo of a small stream near you, you help us create a visual library of what's at risk. It's easy – just post your photo to Facebook or Instagram with the hashtag #SaveCleanWater and the city and state where you found the stream. (Location info helps congresspeople see that their constituents care about clean water.) Thank you for taking action to #SaveCleanWater!

This week's featured photo comes to us from Tara in Missouri.
