About IDAH2O

The IDAH2O Master Water Steward program launched in 2010 and has over 500 certified volunteers. 

What IDAH2O Master Water Stewards Do

Participants attend a two-part workshop that combines about three hours of online or classroom instruction with about three hours of hands-on fieldwork.

Once a volunteer becomes a certified IDAH2O Master Water Steward, they can adopt a stream location to monitor regularly. Monitoring includes habitat, biological, and chemical/physical assessments.

Public Data Sharing

All data collected is added to a public website. This data may help agencies determine water quality standards and priorities.
