DCNR’s Conservation and Natural Resources Advisory Council is scheduled to meet on March 27 to discuss the update to the 2014-19 PA Outdoor Recreation Plan.
Diane Kripas, Division Chief for DCNR’s Bureau of Recreation and Conservation will lead the discussion of the Recreation Plan.
DCNR is required to complete an Outdoor Recreation Plan every 5 years to remain eligible for federal Land and Water Conservation Fund monies.
So far, DCNR has begun some of the survey work and formed a Technical Advisory Committee.
DCNR expects to have a draft plan done by the end of the year and publish the 2020-2025 Plan next spring.
Also on the agenda is an overview of Gov. Wolf’s Restore Pennsylvania infrastructure funding plan.
The meeting will be held in Room 105 of the Rachel Carson Building starting at 10:00.
For more information and available handouts, visit the Conservation and Natural Resources Advisory Council webpage. Questions should be directed to Gretchen Leslie by calling 717-772-9084 or sending email to: gleslie@pa.gov.
