The Ko'olau Mountains Watershed Partnership (KMWP) is a voluntary alliance of public and private landowners and concerned parties who have banded together to manage forested upland watershed areas of the Ko'olau mountains on O'ahu and ensure fresh water supplies for future generations.

KMWP Mission Statement

“The Ko‘olau Mountains Watershed Partnership recognizes that the watershed encompassing the Ko‘olau Mountains is an invaluable resource for the island of O‘ahu that must be preserved and protected. It is an integral component of the present and future water supply of the island of O‘ahu. Proper management of the forested watershed area and its native ecosystems is needed to protect the usefulness and value of the watershed in perpetuity.”
