This year the American Institute of Professional Geologists selected Margaret H. Dunn, PG,CPG as its recipient of the 2004 John T. Galey, Sr. Memorial Public Service Award.

The award recognizes an individual who has an outstanding record of public service well beyond their normal professional responsibilities.

Specifically, Margaret was recognized for volunteering and partnering with numerous watershed groups throughout western Pennsylvania, including the Slippery Rock Watershed Coalition, Jennings Water Quality Improvement Coalition, Greene County Watershed Alliance, Montour Run Watershed Association, Aultman Watershed Association for Restoring the Environment, Ohio River Celebration Committee, and others, to develop and install passive systems to treat abandoned mine drainage and to provide public outreach and education relating to watershed stewardship.
