DEP Increases For
County Conservation Districts
HARRISBURG (Dauphin Co.)
The Pennsylvania Department
of Environmental Protection
(DEP) recently announced it will
increase its supplemental
2001-2002 Chapter 105 funding
to delegated county conservation
districts to $250,000. This com
mitment reflects DEP’s interest
in working cooperatively with the
conservation districts and in
being responsive to their partners’
concerns.
Through a variety of funding
sources, including Growing
Greener, DEP has invested more
than $32 million over the past
two years with their conservation
district partners. Additionally,
DEP has placed 51 Watershed
Specialists in conservation dis
tricts across the commonwealth.
“DEP is excited about the posi
tive results being achieved
through our partnership with
conservation districts,” DEP
Deputy Secretary for Water Man-
agement Larry Tropea said. “We
look forward to beneficial ways to
further strengthen our partner
ship.”
In the Sept. 15 issue, Lancaster Farming has scheduled the fall 2001
Foraging Around/ the quarterly newsletter of the Pennsylvania Forage and
Grassland Council. That issue of Foraging Around is dedicated —j

Under the Chapter 105 Pro
gram, delegated county conserva
tion districts assist DEP by help
ing landowners and
municipalities comply with the
department’s Chapter 105 gener
al permit requirements. Conser
vation district also provide train
ing on regulatory requirements
and respond to citizens’ questions
regarding activities in streams,
waterways and wetlands. DEP
believes these activities are an es-
sential service to local citizens
and governments. Last year, DEP
invested an additional $150,000
to help delegated conservation
districts effectively carry out the
Chapter 105 program.
The decision to use funds for
the Chapter 105 program high
lights the department’s recogni
tion of the need to work with con
servation districts to increase
public understanding of activities
in streams, waterways and wet
lands.
