We aimed at the wrong target. . .
While many folks wrote to their legislators to oppose any Governor Corbett plans to force DCNR to lease more lands for natural gas drilling, DCNR has not received messages. At a recent meeting, State Forester Dan Devlin said that he was “surprised at the lack of feedback from the public”.
DCNR needs our support in opposing new leases.

The roundtable will be held Tuesday evenings starting on January 17, 2012 at 6:30 pm. We’ll meet at the DuBois Area High School in the upper cafeteria.

On August 1, 2009, the chapter, Fish Commission, and other volunteers installed 3 double log vane structures in the Sandy Lick Creek by the DuBois Mall, upstream of where the flood control begins. Even with all the water (it rained all week) we were able to get into the creek and place these devices on the mall side of the creek. The bottom there is very rocky from when the flood control was built so we’re not sure how much cutting will occur, but it will help the creek some to be sure. We still need to install three on the other side and are planning to do this summer 2010. We had over 20 people come out and help.
