The mission of the Upper Potomac Tributary Team is to reduce nutrient and sediment inputs and to restore habitat in the Upper Potomac Watershed through community participation. The team believes that it can make the most effective contributions to protecting and restoring the Upper Potomac Watershed by focusing on the following four themes:

1. 1. Stream Restoration and Reforestation Projects: work with organizations and landowners to accomplish stream restoration and reforestation projects.
2. 2. Environmental Education, Public Awareness, and Stakeholder Outreach: promote awareness of the need for and the benefits of water quality protection and restoration.
3. 3. Environmental Public Policy Forum: bring together citizens and local government officials with state and federal government experts to discuss water quality restoration policies, their implications, and the best means to implement them.
4. 4. Agricultural Issues: work with the agricultural community to promote practices that protect and restore water quality.
