Tookany/Tacony-Creek Integrated Watershed Management Plan
Tookany/Tacony-Creek Integrated Watershed Management Plan Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed Partnership Mission Statement The Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed Partnership is a consortium of proactive environmental groups, community groups, government agencies, businesses, residents and other stakeholders who have an interest in improving the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed. The goals of the initiative are to protect, enhance, and restore the beneficial uses of the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford waterways and riparian areas.

The partnership seeks to achieve higher levels of environmental improvement by sharing information and resources. Simply stated, the mission of the Partnership is: * To increase public understanding of the importance of a clean and healthy watershed * To instill a sense of appreciation and stewardship among residents for the natural environment * To improve and enhance our parks, streams, and surrounding communities in the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed. May 2005 Executive Summary Foreword This plan presents a logical and affordable pathway to restore and protect the beneficial and designated uses of the waters of the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Creek basin. Based on extensive physical, chemical and biological assessments, the plan explores the nature, causes, severity and opportunities for control of water quality impairments in the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Creek watershed. The primary intent of the planning process, as articulated by the stakeholders, is to improve the environmental health and safe enjoyment of the Tookany/Tacony- Frankford watershed by sharing resources and through cooperation among residents and other stakeholders in the watershed. -

Intermodal Passenger System Survey, Phase III Date Published June 2004 a Working Document Publication No
JUNE 2004 intermodal passenger system survey phaseiii A WORKING DOCUMENT DELAWARE VALLEY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION Created in 1965, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is an interstate, intercounty and intercity agency that provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning to shape a vision for the future growth of the Delaware Valley region. The region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties, as well as the City of Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer counties in New Jersey. DVRPC provides technical assistance and services; conducts high priority studies that respond to the requests and demands of member state and local governments; fosters cooperation among various constituents to forge a consensus on diverse regional issues; determines and meets the needs of the private sector; and practices public outreach efforts to promote two-way communication and public awareness of regional issues and the Commission. Our logo is adapted from the official DVRPC seal, and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole, while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River. The two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. DVRPC is funded by a variety of funding sources including federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Pennsylvania and New Jersey departments of transportation, as well as by DVRPC’s state and local member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for its findings and conclusions, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies. -
