|
|
The 2009 Schuylkill Watershed Congress will be held on March 7 at the Montgomery County Community College West Campus in Pottstown.
With a focus on networking across disciplines and a goal of presenting new information about watershed restoration, the annual Schuylkill Watershed Congress has become a highly anticipated event for watershed citizens interested in understanding, protecting and restoring their local streams.
Whether you are a volunteer dedicated to improving your watershed, a municipal official who cares about water resources, a conservation professional charged with protecting our waterways, a teacher who wants to inform others about watersheds, or a student who wants to know more about stream function, the Schuylkill Watershed Congress offers something for you.
The 2009 Schuylkill Watershed Congress will feature concurrent and poster sessions covering a broad range of watershed topics and exhibits by watershed organizations, environmental consulting firms and government agencies.
The keynote speaker will be Andrew Pitz, Vice President, Strategic Policy & Planning, Natural Lands Trust, who will be presenting a talk titled Climate Change in the Watershed. Pitz's presentation will address climate science, present specific regional data and include an interactive discussion. At the 2008 Schuylkill Watershed Congress, participants and presenters hailed from throughout the Schuylkill Watershed, across Pennsylvania and from as far away as Smyrna, Delaware; Flemington, New Jersey; Baltimore, Maryland; and Dryden, New York.
Whatever watershed you call home, you will learn something new at the Schuylkill Watershed Congress.
