Our Mission
The Northwest Alliance is committed to restoring and protecting the natural habitat of Northwest Creek and its surrounding ecosystem. Our areas of primary concern are: Northwest Creek, Northwest Harbor, Barcelona Neck, Little Northwest Creek, Barnes Meadow, the Grace Estate and the surrounding area of Northwest Woods in East Hampton, NY. We take an active, solutions-driven approach to ensure the richness, beauty and abundance of this environment thrive for generations to come.
Our priorities are to:
-- Advance the use of the best possible science to identify and address environmental threats to the vitality of the Creek and its surrounding ecosystem.
-- Implement a thoughtfully designed habitat restoration program, including hydrologically effective dredging, phragmites removal, and other proven interventions.
-- Advocate for acquisition by the Town of East Hampton of undeveloped and developed parcels within the sensitive watershed areas of this critical habitat.
-- Expand outreach and education initiatives that inspire responsible human behavior and foster stewardship of the Creek.
-- Champion strong legislative action and effective enforcement to protect and sustain the Creek's health.
We actively collaborate with state, county, and local governments, as well as private environmental organizations to amplify our impact. At the same time, we are growing a vibrant community of members united by a shared appreciation for the Creek's past and a commitment to its future.
