Thankfully, organizations and many individuals work wisely to protect and preserve our streams. The Little Miami River is one of America's National Wild and Scenic Rivers. "The Little Miami River Kleeners' and Little Miami Watershed Network's purpose is to enhance the quality of life along the Little Miami River by promoting the protection of, stimulating the public interest in, and encouraging the preservation of the Little Miami River."

On April 23, 1969, the Little Miami River earned the distinction of becoming
​Ohio's first designated State Scenic River.

Little Miami State and National Scenic River:  Rivers and streams in the Ohio Scenic Rivers program are monitored regularly to ensure that the water habitat quality remains high.  The Stream Quality Monitoring (SQM) program is coordinated by regional employees, but most of the monitoring is done by volunteers.
