Proceedings From Bucknell University Susquehanna River Symposium Now Available

The Bucknell University Center for Sustainability and the Environment held their 15th Susquehanna River Symposium on November 6-7.  Proceedings from the Symposium are now available online.

Despite its name, the interests of this symposium extend well beyond the Susquehanna. It's just that over the years, this symposium has become branded the "Susquehanna River Symposium," because of its roots in the Susquehanna Coalition for Environmental Studies and its strong historical focus on the Susquehanna and the Chesapeake.

The Keynote was provided by DCNR Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn.  Click Here to watch her presentation.

The proceedings webpage also highlights student poster and presentation winners--

-- Shannon Leininger, Penn State University Law, Creating A Better System: Managing Stormwater & Floods In PA
