| About | Established in 2009, the Back River Restoration Committee, Inc. (BRRC) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to restoring the health of the tidal portion of the Back River watershed. The Back River has been known for years as one of the most polluted rivers in Maryland, but we are out to change that reputation. Since 2011, BRRC has removed over 7 million pounds of trash and debris from Back River. The river is naturally rebounding with a little help from Mother Nature and the continual upgrades of the Waste Water Treatment facility. In 2011, Back River was (1) of only (2) areas marked as “improved” by the Chesapeake Bay Program’s report card. |
