The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is offering a grant in partnership with Wildlife For Everyone Endowment Foundation for the Musser Run Stream Restoration Project. This project aims to utilize ecological restoration funds for improving stream parameters like dimension, pattern, and profile. Through natural channel design principles, the restoration work will enhance stream bank stability, reduce erosion, improve floodplain connectivity, and enhance in-stream habitat availability. The project area falls within perpetually conserved properties managed by the Pennsylvania Game Commission, funded by the natural resource damage assessment settlement from the Jacks Creek and Keystone Sanitation Landfill Superfund Sites.
