Integrating Stream Restoration Into PA’s Chesapeake Bay Pollution Reduction Plans Workshop Dec. 11

The Center for Watershed Protection and Ecosystem Planning and Restoration will host an Integrating Stream Restoration Into PA’s Chesapeake Bay Pollution Reduction Plans Workshop on December 11 at the Upper Allen Township Office, 100 Gettysburg Pike in Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

The Workshop will provide training to improve understanding of how to use and apply the Chesapeake Bay Program Stream Restoration crediting protocols towards TMDL and Pollution Reduction Plan targets, to address FAQs about how to implement the protocols and how they will be affected by the new Phase 6 Chesapeake Bay Watershed Model, and to provide guidance on how to rapidly determine suitable candidates for stream restoration.

The Workshop will be classroom based and include lectures and hands‐on exercises.

Participants will also learn about site selection and assessment methods to rapidly evaluate existing stream conditions, recommend potential stream restoration solutions, and evaluate the feasibility of potential stream restoration projects for project implementation prioritization.

The cost of the Workshop is $40 for nonprofit groups and government employees and $100 for consultants for online registration.  The deadline for online registration is December 1.
