Raritan Headwaters Association is a nonprofit environmental services organization based in Bedminster, New Jersey, focused on protecting water quality in the North and South Branch Raritan watershed. Since 1959, it has served as a monitoring and coordination body for a 470-square-mile region that spans 38 municipalities across Hunterdon, Somerset, and Morris counties, aiming to safeguard the rivers, streams, and reservoirs that supply drinking water to hundreds of thousands of residents downstream. The association operates as a member-supported 501(c)(3) entity guided by a board of trustees, supported by staff, volunteers, and program collaborators such as AmeriCorps members and educators. Its activities center on watershed health, partnering with local communities and other organizations to collect data, implement restoration projects, and promote cleaner water across the watershed. A notable recent development includes ongoing collaborations and initiatives to address harmful algae blooms and to support stream restoration and dam-related projects within the region.
