Soundkeeper
The Soundkeeper embodies a powerful idea: Restoring and protecting the environment requires constant vigilance.
Long Island Soundkeeper Bill Lucey plays that vital role on the water. A watchdog, doing what’s possible only through direct contact: patrolling the Sound’s waters, engaging with you, the public, spotting new opportunities for restoration, and finding and stopping pollution with the help of our legal team.
