PA Environmental Council Releases Allegheny County Riverfronts Report
|
The Pennsylvania Environmental Council this week released a progress report on the Allegheny County Riverfronts Project.
Allegheny County's riverfronts are destinations for its citizens and visitors. They provide recreation, conservation, and access opportunities while maintaining their place as important drivers in the region's industrial, commercial, and residential economies.
The Riverfronts Project provides overall planning and coordination for implementation of recreation, conservation, and access. PEC works closely with Allegheny County, Friends of the Riverfront and other partner organizations to implement specific projects along the riverfronts.
Some of the previous work that is being considered in this process includes, but is not limited to the following: Three Rivers Heritage Trail Plan, Three Rivers Second Nature Reports, Three Rivers River Conservation Plan, Monongahela River Conservation Plan, Middle Allegheny River Conservation Plan, Allegheny County Comprehensive Plan, Allegheny County Riverfront Plan, Three Rivers Park Plan, Riverlife Task Force Landscaping Guidelines and Report of the Riverlife Task Force Quality and Corridors Committee.
PEC initiated a partnership with Allegheny County and Friends of the Riverfront in summer 2007 on implementation.
A complete copy of the report is available online.
