       The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (Department), Bureau of Recreation and Conservation, has approved the Lower Tohickon Creek Watershed Conservation Plan (Plan) and is placing the Lower Tohickon Creek, the watershed and all tributaries covered in the Plan in Bucks County on the Pennsylvania Rivers Conservation Registry (Registry).

       The Tinicum Conservancy submitted the Plan and other required information to gain Registry status.

       2.  All tributary streams within the Lower Tohickon Creek Watershed.

       This action becomes effective March 15, 2003. Projects identified in the Plan become eligible for implementation, development or acquisition grant funding through the Program.
