Mission

For nearly two decades, Baykeeper and its Deltakeeper project have been the premiere watchdog of the water quality of the vast San Francisco Bay-Delta watershed. Founded in 1989, Baykeeper works to reverse the environmental degradation of the past and promote new strategies and policies to protect the water quality of the San Francisco Bay. Using the many tools at our disposal -- advocacy, water quality monitoring and science, on-the-water patrols, public education and, when necessary, legal action -- we compel polluters to stop contaminating our waterways and hold government agencies accountable for safeguarding and restoring the waters that belong to all of us.
