SUMMARY:Public Hearing - PA DEP Nutrient Credit Trading Program
DESCRIPTION:The PA Joint Legislative Air and Water Pollution Control and Conservation Committee is holding a public hearing on the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection’s Nutrient Credit Trading program. This hearing is free and open to the general public.  \nFederal requirements limit the state of Pennsylvania to a maximum amount of phosphorous and nitrogen that is discharged into the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. This program provides a cost-effective way for wastewater treatment plants and industries to meet their pollution control requirements for nitrogen and phosphorous by purchasing “credits” from other facilities or non-point sources that are doing more than required.  \nThis hearing will provide an overview of the Nutrient Credit Trading program and how it is affecting the sewage treatment industry\, local governments\, and agricultural non-point source stakeholders. Recommendations on how to improve the program will be presented in front of the Committee. \nFor questions about this public hearing contact Tony Guerrieri at tguerrieri@jcc.legis.state.pa.us or call the Committee office at (717) 787-7570.

SUMMARY:2017 Pennsylvania State Association of Township Supervisors Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:LandStudies’ President\, Kelly Gutshall will present as part of a panel session with Sara Gibson (Manager of Rapho Township)\, Andy Mears (Senior Associate with Johnson Mirmiran & Thompson\, Inc.) and Lori Yeich (Recreation and Conservation Manager with PA DCNR). Their session is titled\, “How Parks and Trails Can Address Stormwater Issues.” Those in attendance will learn from Kelly and several other presenters how townships in the state are using green infrastructure to turn their parks\, trails\, and waterways from things that are “nice to have” into multi-functional necessities for their community. Along the way they are lowering their park maintenance costs\, expanding their recreational opportunities\, obtaining grant funding\, and mitigating stormwater permitting requirements. Real world examples will include the Cocalico Creek Watershed Restoration Planning project\, the Jackson Township Golf Park\, and the Warwick Township School District\, among others. \nTo learn more about the conference and register\, visit http://conference.psats.org

SUMMARY:2017 Pennsylvania Recreation and Park Society (PRPS) Annual Conference
DESCRIPTION:LandStudies’ President\, Kelly Gutshall will present as part of a panel session with Ruth Ann Hocker (Stormwater Program Manager with the City of Lancaster)\, Claire Maulhardt\, P.L.A. (City Beautiful H20 Manager for Capital Region Water)\, and Lori Yeich (Recreation and Conservation Manager\, PA DCNR). Their session is titled\, “How Parks and Trails Can Address Stormwater Issues.” Those in attendance will learn from Kelly and several other presenters how townships in the state are using green infrastructure to turn their parks\, trails\, and waterways from things that are “nice to have” into multi-functional necessities for their community. Along the way they are lowering their park maintenance costs\, expanding their recreational opportunities\, obtaining grant funding\, and mitigating stormwater permitting requirements. Real world examples will include the Cocalico Creek Watershed Restoration Planning project\, the Jackson Township Golf Park\, and the Warwick Township School District\, among others. \nTo learn more about the conference and register\, visit http://www.prps.org/training/training-conference.html

SUMMARY:11th Annual Susquehanna River Symposium
DESCRIPTION:LandStudies will be exhibiting selected watershed projects at this year’s Susquehanna River Symposium at Bucknell University. \nBucknell University will host the 11th Annual Susquehanna River Symposium\, “A Tale of Two Rivers: The Susquehanna and the Delaware\,” on Nov. 11 & 12 in the Elaine Langone Center. The event is free and open to the public. Registration is required only for exhibitors and those giving oral or poster presentations. General symposium attendees are not required to register. \nThe symposium is offered by the Watershed Sciences & Engineering Program of the Bucknell Center for Sustainability & the Environment to connect scientists and engineers from throughout the mid-Atlantic region to focus on issues regarding the Susquehanna and Delaware watersheds. \n“This event brings together academics\, watershed managers\, consulting scientists and engineers\, and the public to discuss ongoing scientific research and innovative projects\, to share ideas\, and to increase awareness of watershed health\, policy\, and sustainability issues facing the Susquehanna and Delaware watersheds\,” said Program Director Benjamin Hayes. \n“After focusing solely on the Susquehanna for the past ten symposia \, we are excited to expand this year’s event to include the Delaware watershed. There are similarities and yet distinct differences between the two river basins\, not only in hydrology\, geology\, and ecology\, but also in land use and natural resource extraction\, infrastructure\, their estuaries\, and water law and policy. We are very excited about broadening the scope of this symposium and look forward to the conversations and discussions that will take place.” \nFor more information: http://www.eg.bucknell.edu/wse/river_symposiums/2016/index.html

SUMMARY:Green Infrastructure & Stormwater Best Management Practices Tour
DESCRIPTION:LandStudies has designed and built nearly 100 green infrastructure sites in Pennsylvania\, with approximately 30 located near our Lititz (Lancaster County) Pennsylvania office. LandStudies will share its vast experience in water resource management and watershed planning with tour participants for the purpose of ensuring EPA compliance\, improving community well-being and providing economic value to stakeholders. The hands-on educational tour showcases nearby green infrastructure sites (with up to 15 years of performance history) and cost-effective best management practices that stack environmental and regulatory benefits. \nTour Sites Demonstrate:\nAlternative stormwater management techniques\nGroundwater infiltration in karst geology\nNutrient and sediment pollution reduction\nWater quality improvement to meet municipal MS4 and TMDL requirements\nPollution reductions in accordance with the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Implementation Plan\nIncreased stormwater attenuation to potentially reduce localized peak flooding\nTour Features:\nQuantified water quality and quantity benefits\nEcological restoration with environmental and regulatory benefits\nCost-benefit analysis for each project\nComparison of various techniques\nLessons learned
