Learn more about the issues of the Dan River Basin

The Dan River Basin Association (DRBA) exists to preserve and promote the natural and cultural resources of the Dan River Basin. Did you know that DRBA also works to support clean air and healthy water throughout our region? When necessary, DRBA actively opposes threats to these resources.

DRBA promotes the rivers for multiple uses, including recreation and commercial and municipal growth. We believe that, with careful planning, natural and cultural preservation and economic development can occur hand-in-hand. The unspoiled rivers, the region's unique and greatest resource, will be at the center as the sixteen counties of the Basin build a diverse economy, which must be based in part on new ideas.

We cannot do this important work without you. Please join us by making a tax-deductible donation to the Stewardship Fund today. Your gift will be dedicated to promoting healthy water and clean air and opposing current and future threats to these assets. Our goal is to preserve clean air and drinking water for generations to come.
