Watershed Engineering Technical Assistance Program Report Now Available

The PA Association of Conservation Districts this week published the 2008-2009 annual report on its watershed Engineering Technical Assistance Program that was continued this year due to a grant from the Department of Environmental Protection's Growing Greener Program.

 

Since March of 2008, PACD has provided technical assistance for a variety of local projects as part of the sixth PACD Growing Greener grant.

 

It is estimated that PACD technical assistance has been involved with $4.2 million worth of environmental improvement projects during this grant period. PACD has completed 126 individual projects statewide of the agricultural, abandoned mine drainage, stream corridor restoration and miscellaneous type.

 

The report outlines case studies of projects the program helped during the past year, along with photos and a description.
