The North Branch of the Potomac River has come a long way. Arguably best known for its industrial recent past, this webinar puts the current state of the western-most Potomac region into perspective. Starting with the geological formation of the mountains, we will then tour the North Branch watershed through time and space, describing the pre-colonial period, the industrialized period, and ending at the current state of the region. Given all discussed we ask “what’s next for this region?”

The Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin is celebrating 85 years of protecting and preserving the Potomac River watershed. Much has happened since ICPRB was authorized by Congress in 1940, so please join us for this webinar series highlighting the past, present, and future of our nation’s river.
