Conewango Creek Initiative Conservation Toolbox for Municipalities

Description

The Conewago Creek Initiative is a locally-led, collaborative partnership effort in the Conewago Creek watershed in Dauphin, Lebanon, and Lancaster Counties of Pennsylvania that seeks to improve water quality in the Conewago Creek watershed. Recognizing that municipalities can play a key role in protecting watersheds and water resources, the Conewago Initiative has developed this toolbox to provide municipalities with ideas and guidance on how to develop and implement land and water conservation programs to make improvements to their communities and the Conewago Creek. The tools are organized by the five key goals developed to meet the vision for the Conewago watershed. For each tool, three tiers are provided, each describing various levels of municipal involvement and investment needed. Links to resources, suggestions on possible partners and contact information for someone who can help you get started is provided for each tool.
