Alabama Mountains, Rivers, and Valleys RC&D Council

Alabama Mountains, Rivers, and Valleys RC&D Council (the Tennessee Valley RC&D Council's name changed 10/2004) is located in north Alabama. It is comprised of eight counties: Limestone, Madison, Jackson, Lawrence, Morgan, Marshall, DeKalb, and Cullman.

The Alabama Mountains, Rivers, and Valleys RC&D Council aggressively approaches innovative ways to promote environmental utilization and development of the natural and human resources in its area. Major projects are animal waste composting; cooperating with The University of Alabama in Huntsville and Alabama A&M with monitoring of constructed wetlands; sponsoring watershed workshops; environmental/educational programs for minorities, especially Spanish immigrants; and supporting County Commissions in developing county parks.
