Water Quality
We value clean water for many reasons. We depend on lakes and streams for drinking water and recreation. Wildlife depends on habitats created by healthy streams, wetlands and lakes. There is strong support in both rural and urban communities for efforts to maintain and improve water quality.
More than 90 percent of Missouri is private land. This land also harbors most of Missouri's natural resources. Those involved in the conservation of soil, water, forests, fish, and wildlife cannot fully succeed without the voluntary cooperation of private landowners. Encouraging stewardship of natural resources on private land is a vital part of the conservation effort. Many agencies offer assistance programs to help landowners make the most of their land while also providing for these resources.
