What's New? JOIN THE CAMPAIGN

Protecting Our Streams
We recently launched an exciting campaign to improve water quality by requiring at least 100 foot buffers along all streams in PA. This would require new construction be set back from the stream's edge, reducing pollution and flood damage and protecting drinking water quality. So far, 130 organizations and dozens of state legislators have joined our effort. Learn more about this exciting initiative and find out how you can help. More...

Preserving Pennsylvania's Wetlands
We are working to protect the state's remaining wetlands, especially those in small watersheds. Wetlands help reduce flooding and minimize erosion and pollution of our streams. Current regulations allow wetlands in small watersheds to be destroyed without any state permit or review. Learn more about how we want to change this and how you can get involved. More...

But not all streams that deserve this protection have Exceptional Value (EV) status…and some EV streams are being harmed by pollution. We're working to strengthen protection for EV streams, keeping our best streams as clean as possible. Find out what you can do to protect EV streams in your area and around the state. More...
