I was honored as President of Eastern Pennsylvania Coalition for Abandoned Mine Reclamation (EPCAMR) to welcome U.S. Secretary of Interior Deb Haaland, Senator Bob Casey and Congressman Matt Cartwright to the former Harry E breaker in Swoyersville, Pennsylvania. The enormous culm bank, in the process of being reclaimed, was the backdrop for the announcement of major funding from the Infrastructure Bill to clean up abandoned mine land (AML) and abandoned mine drainage (AMD). Special thanks to EPCAMR Executive Director Robert Hughes for organizing this meeting and the subsequent tour with Secretary Haaland at several NEPA AMD sites. This is great news for Pennsylvania streams and the wild and native trout that cannot survive without cold, clean water!! Tight lines from Wild Trout Man!!
Water is Life.
Cold, Clean Water is Critical.
Long Live the Native and Wild Trout!!
