|
|
The Lebanon and Lancaster County Conservation Districts will hold their 9th Annual Watershed Forum on October 29 at the Lancaster Farm & Home Center, 1383 Arcadia Road, Lancaster starting with breakfast at 8:15
There will be a variety of speakers at the watershed forum, including Christian Canby, a crabber from Rock Creek, Md., who makes his living from the Chesapeake Bay, said Stephanie Harmon, watershed specialist for the Lebanon County Conservation District.
Related to Canby's talk will be a joint presentation from Lebanon County Planning Director Kris Troup, representing the Lebanon County Clean Water Alliance, and John Bingham, chairman of the Lancaster County Clean Water Consortium, about the EPA's Chesapeake Bay clean-water initiatives.
Speaking about working with the Amish community will be John Shuman and Pat Fasano of the Octoraro Watershed Association, and Fran Reining, president of the Friends of Fishing Creek Watershed Association, who will offer tips on making low-cost water-quality improvements.
The cost of this year's forum has been underwritten by the Foundation for Pennsylvania Watersheds, the Capital Resource Conservation & Development Council, The Hershey Co. and the Octoraro Native Plant Nursery.
The event is free, but registration is required by October 25.
