John Quarterman on the Withlachoochee (audio)

Back at the end of March at
a river conference in Roswell, Georgia,
I was interviewed for a podcast.
Here’s
the audio,
and here’s the blurb they included:
John Quarterman on the Withlachoochee
Monday, July 9th, 2012
John S. Quarterman
was born and raised
in Lowndes County, where he married his wife
Gretchen. They
live on the same land where he grew up, and
participate in local community and government.
NPS talks with Quarterman and his observations on starting and
strengthening a Withlachoochee Riverkeeper organization at
Georgia River Network‘s
2012 Weekend for Rivers.
The water organization has since been incorporated as the Georgia non-profit
WWALS Watershed Coalition:
WWALS is an advocacy organization working for watershed conservation
of the Willacoochee, Withlacoochee, Alapaha, and Little River
Systems watershed in south Georgia and north Florida through
awareness, environmental monitoring, and citizen advocacy.

PS: They also recorded
another podcast
which starts out on what may sound like a completely different topic,
but which is actually quite related.
