MEANDRS has a governing board made up of riparian property owners and local government officials, with technical advisors from regional and State authorities and other interest groups. The group is multi-faceted and is working toward improving the DRS for recreation and other uses while maintaining and respecting the rights of riparian owners, farmers, and other stakeholders within the watershed.
