Researchers at the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary are working with others to restore the freshwater mussel population of the Delaware River Valley.  Discover how these tiny animals overcome many challenges as they keep our streams clean by filtering water as they eat. All the details are available at DelawareEstuary.org/Freshwater-Mussel-Restoration.

The PDE even works with environmental educators, teachers, and volunteer leaders to locate existing beds of mussels. Visit DelawareEstuary.org/Mussel-Survey-Program to see how you can get involved..
