Conservation Brochures
The district created a brochure with information on conservation
programs and technical assistance provided by the district.
Promoting the theme, We All Live Downstream, the brochure
addressed local NPS water pollution issues, described how
Pennsylvania's activities can affect the Chesapeake Bay, and
encouraged the reader to take action to reduce NPS pollution,
improve local water quality and ultimately, the Chesapeake
Bay.

Nature Trail at Riverside Park
An environmental aspect was added to Riverside Park in Tunkhannock
Borough. A nature trail and accompanying trail guide serve
as an environmental tool for heightening awareness of the
diversity of natural resources and their interrelationships
along the Susquehanna River and the river itself. Actions
of individuals affect the quality of the water resource and
ultimately those downstream at the Chesapeake Bay.
