Pennsylvania Stream Signage Project a Success

The Pennsylvania Organization for Watersheds and Rivers (POWR) has completed a three-year project to coordinate the placement of signs at 4,088 stream crossings throughout Pennsylvania. 

The purpose of the project  was to make people aware of streams and their watersheds, which play an essential role in Pennsylvania's environmental, social, and economic vitality. In all, 45 counties and over 1,500 roadways received stream identification signs at road crossings where the public may never have been aware that they were driving over a waterway.

F. X. Browne, Inc. specializes in watershed management planning that includes a public education component. Highly visible educational tools such as watershed and stream signage, kiosks, brochures, and websites can go a long way toward improving public support for watershed protection and restoration efforts.
