The House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee is scheduled to meet on July 2, but the agenda has not been announced.  There is speculation House Bill 1565 (Hahn-R-Northampton) which would eliminate the requirement for forested stream buffers to control erosion and sedimentation in special protection watersheds- sponsor summary-- will be on the agenda.

The Chesapeake Bay Foundation-PA opposes this legislation because it eliminates a cost-effective way to improve and protect water quality in Pennsylvania’s most sensitive and pristine waterways.  Click Here for more information.

The meeting will start at 10:00 in Room 205 of the Ryan Building.

Rep. Ron Miller (R-York) serves as Majority Chair and Rep. Greg Vitali (D-Delaware) serves as Minority Chair.
