    Earth Conservancy South Valley Corridor Lands, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania DRAFT FINAL REUSE ANALYSIS AND SUSTAINABLE REDEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Through support provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the SRA Team (SRA International, Inc. and Vita Nuova) conducted several research tasks to develop a regional analysis to support potential development of Earth Conservancy property. The SRA Team conducted a regional analysis to identify opportunities and constraints and to present a regional framework which would support redevelopment of the South Valley Corridor lands owned by Earth Conservancy. In addition, the SRA Team developed preliminary draft development concepts to showcase redevelopment opportunities which are supported by the regional market as well as the site location and opportunities. This analysis is one component of a comprehensive project to understand the economic history and trends of the region, market competition and potential for the area, and physical opportunities and constraints of the site. This analysis will 1) help the Earth Conservancy Board of Directors make informed decisions regarding the implementation of the 1999 Master Plan and the phasing of development and 2) provide the preliminary data and analysis from which developers/investors will make decisions. The following analysis reviews the greater Scranton/Wilkes-Barre/Hazleton, PA Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) region for economic history and trends and market competition. The market potential focuses on the viability of developing the South Valley Corridor lands in the Wyoming Valley. This information was collected through qualitative (regional visit, interviews) and quantitative (data searches) approaches. PROJECT LOCATION/STUDY AREA AND PRINCIPLES The area considered in the reuse planning framework includes areas of the City of Nanticoke, Hanover Township, and Newport Township of the Wyoming Valley, which runs northeast to southwest in eastern Pennsylvania and which includes the cities of Scranton and Wilkes-Barre.
