Welcome to Western Stream Works

Our story begins in 1999 when Western Stream Works was founded, though  our relationship with nature started long before Western Stream Works came to life. 

Owned and operated by Bill Coughlin, our company collaborates with people and nature alike to learn, grow, and endure. As a small business, we take pride in our personality and commitment to highlighting the beauty of the natural world.

Our Vision

We are a passionate and purpose-driven company that combines the demand for organically focused stream restoration and improved water quality with the niche of mine reclamation and much more.


Our aim is to play a part in sustaining the beauty of the world around us. We believe in immersing ourselves in the communities we serve to advance education in nature and extend our lifetime of hands-on learning.
