RAVE Photographic Expedition Moves Thru PA, Chesapeake Bay Watershed
Photo

A team of nationally and internationally known photographers from the International League of Conservation Photographers has donated its time to help the Chesapeake Bay Foundation fight to reduce pollution in local rivers, streams, and the Chesapeake Bay.

           One of the stops along the way was the Old Forge acid mine drainage borehole which discharges 50-80 million gallons per day directly into the Lackawanna River, a major tributary to the Susquehanna River.
