On January 31, 2000, Greene County submitted the Dunkard Creek Watershed Plan and other required information to gain Registry status.
After review of the Plan and the other information, the Department has determined that Pennsylvania Rivers Conservation Program requirements have been satisfied and places the following on the Registry:
* The Dunkard Creek Watershed from the confluence with the Monongahela River to its headwaters (234.7 square miles); and,
* All tributary streams within the watershed.
This action becomes effective today, February 19, 2000. Projects, located within Pennsylvania, identified in the Dunkard Creek Watershed Plan become eligible for implementation, development or acquisition grant funding through the Pennsylvania Rivers Conservation Program.
