Preserving the “Little Waters” . . . Native Americans named Nippersink Creek “little waters" for its many springs. Today we are challenged to keep these waters clear and clean in the face of widespread development. Landowners along Nippersink Creek and its tributaries can play an important role. All actions to protect wetlands, maintain natural shoreline vegetation, and restore wildlife habitat will help.
