Lititz Run Watershed Alliance and Warwick Township in Lancaster County were recognized with the Outstanding Achievement for Nutrient Reduction by Local Government Award by the Businesses for the Bay Program.

Warwick Township and LRWA have partnered with the goal of maintaining the viability of the farm economy in Lancaster County while preserving the natural resources of the Chesapeake Bay.

Through grant funding, these organizations developed a program to encourage and implement agricultural best management practices to reduce nitrogen, phosphorus and sediment running into Lititz Run, the Conestoga River, the Susquehanna River and ultimately, the Chesapeake Bay.
