The Watersheds Program - Mid-Cumberland Watershed Committee
Mission & Description: The Mid-Cumberland Watershed Committee (MCWC) is a hands-on volunteer group of the Cumberland River Compact. The MCWC works to stimulate improved water quality in this watershed by coordinating the facilitation of education, public activities and the collection and development of information pertinent to our watershed.
The Mid-Cumberland watershed encompasses all the streams and land between Old Hickory Dam and Cheatham Reservoir, extending north to Goodlettsville and south to Antioch.
Know what the major Cumberland River pollutant is? Well, it is the DIRT and
the other "stuff" from our yards, our roofs and our driveways that runs off
every time we have a good rain.
If we all kept our dirt in our own yards, the river would be a lot healthier
and safer for everyone.

to keep your dirt at home.
