We will be doing our Spring Cleanup on April 28. Meet at the Covered Bridge in Little Gap at 9 am. Please come out and lend a hand! Let us know if you can make it by this Friday (4/20) so we know how many gloves, vests, etc we will need from PennDot. Thanks!

Our next meeting will be May 15, 2012, 7 pm, at the Polk Municipal Building.

We attended the December 21,2010 Environmental Quality Board hearing in Harrisburg. One of the items on the agenda was to continue the Petition process for redesignation of the Aquashicola to Exceptional Value (click on Petition on this page). DEP made a short and well done presentation, and the matter was put to a vote. The result was nearly unanimous in favor of further research. One step further along!

DEP has received our Petition to redesignate the Aquashicola Creek (from source to confluence with Buckwha Creek) to Exceptional Value.

In the November 1, 2010 Pa Environment Digest, a section gave notice that the Aquashicola will be evaluated by DEP. The link is: http://www.paenvironmentdigest.com/newsletter/default.asp?NewsletterArticleID=17184.
