PA Streambank Restoration Funding

The Stroud Water Research Center, in conjunction with the NRCS, has initiated a new Riparian Buffer Program in Berks and Lebanon counties of Pennsylvania. The Program provides free technical assistance as well as a cost share for purchasing plants and trees. Funding is also available for fencing to exclude livestock, stream crossings, and streambank restoration. Eligible applicants include property owners on residential, commercial, or industrial lands that include creeks or streams which are not completely forested. http://www.stroudcenter.org/research/riparianbuffer.htm
