Taking samples, analyzing data, and writing reports are all part of managing a watershed. For Kelly Anderson of the Philadelphia Water Department, knowing how to talk with people is just as important.
That means talking with the people who drink the water, helping decision-makers understand why managing the watershed matters, and working with people upstream whose day-to-day choices affect the quality of creeks, streams, and rivers.
Knowing how to connect with each of those groups is a skill Anderson puts at the center of the job.
