  • West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed
    West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed State of the Watershed Report Completed by the West Branch Susquehanna River Task Force February 11, 2005 A Message From: Dr. Douglas J. Austen, Executive Director, Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Michael DiBerardinis, Secretary, PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Kathleen A. McGinty, Secretary, PA Department of Environmental Protection Pennsylvania is renowned for its natural beauty, environmental resources and bounty of outdoor recreational opportunities that draw so many people to experience all that makes Penn’s Woods so grand. Northcentral Pennsylvania was once a major supplier of timber, coal and other raw goods that helped fuel an emerging nation. The resulting pollution problems in the watershed were a legacy our forefathers did not anticipate, but today the area is poised to again capitalize on its natural resources. Governor Edward G. Rendell launched the West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed Initiative to protect a 12-county area that boasts more than 2 million acres of public land and offers unlimited recreational and economic opportunities for Commonwealth residents and visitors. The initiative is designed to restore water quality, enhance recreational opportunities, ensure clean drinking water for residents, revitalize degraded habitat and preserve some of the most pristine open space in the state. The first assignment of the West Branch Susquehanna River Task Force was to prepare this “State of the Watershed Report” to identify problems facing the region, and the main stem and tributaries of the West Branch Susquehanna River. The report addresses current water quality concerns, particularly from abandoned mine lands in the watershed, and also presents an inventory of completed and proposed restoration-related projects by member agencies and watershed groups.
