Hudson 7 Source Waters Map

Seven communities and over 100,000 people rely on drinking water from the Hudson River. Riverkeeper helped these seven communities — the City of Poughkeepsie, Village of Rhinebeck and the Towns of Esopus, Hyde Park, Lloyd, Poughkeepsie and Rhinebeck — organize as the Hudson River Drinking Water Intermunicipal Council. The focus of the council, known as the Hudson 7, is to protect Hudson River water quality.

This map shows the portion of the Hudson River Watershed that most directly contributes to the water supply. The map was created by the Dutchess County Department of Planning, with input from Riverkeeper, based on the NYS Department of Health’s Source Water Assessment program.
