Susquehanna River at Sunbury

Gov. Rendell continued his call for the General Assembly to come back to Harrisburg Monday and Tuesday before the mandated end of the session November 30. The General Assembly continued to say no, they are finished for the year.

The Governor continues to work his way through signing (and not signing) bills passed in the last few hours of the session. No action on environment related bills pending was announced.

But there was still plenty of environmental news this week!
