The 8th Annual Statewide AMD and AMR Conference will be held August 24 to 26 at the Atherton Hotel in State College. This year’s theme is “Back to Basics.”

The Conference is being coordinated by the Western and Eastern Pennsylvania Coalitions for Abandoned Mine Reclamation.

The program will feature presentations on passive mine drainage treatment systems, evaluating water monitoring results, identification of funding sources for projects and much more.

Watershed groups, public agencies, consultants, local and state officials will all be in attendance to network and share their craft.
