The Hilton Head PSD Water Champion Award

Why nominate a Water Champion?
The PSD Water Champion Award is a great way to recognize contributions that affect our most precious natural resource – water. Learning about a recipient’s efforts will help inspire others to think about what they can do to enhance, preserve and protect the water environment. In this regard, the Water Champion Award is a knowledge-sharing effort that can benefit our entire community.
