EC is pleased to share we’ve been awarded a $500,000 Growing Greener grant for our ongoing reconstruction work of Espy Run. As stated by DEP Secretary Patrick McDonnell: “We are continuously looking for ways to redevelop old mine land, particularly in Northeast Pennsylvania, and this Growing Greener grant provides much of the funding needed to continue that effort near Espy Run. Any time a stream can be restored, the community gets more use of that land.” Our thanks to PADEP for the award, and to Senator John Yudichak, Rep. Gerald Mullery, and the many other agencies, organizations, and municipalities for their support. Read more about the project and its progress here.
