Watershed Weekly is a publication produced the Pennsylvania
Organization for Watersheds and Rivers (POWR) to help watershed
groups statewide gain visibility and network with each other. The
newsletter also includes information on upcoming events,
conferences, funding source information, training, and job
opportunities. A new watershed project is spotlighted each week with
topics such as stream bank buffer plantings, dam removals,
monitoring activities for students, and abandoned mine drainage
projects.
