DRBC Presents at 1st Annual Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed Conference

The Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed was formed to help protect and restore the Delaware River, its tributaries, and surrounding landscapes. On June 10-11, 2013, the coalition held its 1st Annual Conference, entitled A Watershed United, at the Inn at Lambertville Station, Lambertville, N.J. Attendees from across the watershed enjoyed a mix of panel discussions, working sessions, and networking opportunities to learn more about the current health of the watershed, effective approaches being used to protect and restore its resources, and coalition initiatives to support similar efforts across the basin.
