The Upper Missouri Water Association (UMWA) is a nonprofit regional water organization including the states of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming. The mission of the UMWA is to protect, develop and manage Upper Missouri water. By working together through the UMWA, water interests can become stronger and more effective. Instead of four separate states, each with a congressman and two senators, the region is represented by five congressmen and eight senators. Through unity, we can accomplish our regional goals.
