Recorded as part of the Section 319 Virtual Watershed Planning and Implementation Meeting on May 22-23, 2023, this presentation discusses the impacts of invasive plant species and how they may impact the success of a restoration project and water quality. Specifically, this presentation discusses the not-so-obvious impacts of invasive plant species, and provides a thorough review of recent research insights in this field.
Recorded as part of the Section 319 Virtual Watershed Planning and Implementation Meeting on May 22-23, 2023, this presentation highlights a unique stream flow modeling program developed by USGS and EPA. Because low-order, headwater streams are the most prevalent in the northeast U.S. but typically do not contain expensive stream gages, this project was initiated to compare stream images to make flow determinations then develop a modeling tool which estimates flow based on the images. Users of the “Flow Photo Explorer” may submit time-lapse, trail camera photographs of their stream, assist in the image ranking, and, eventually, receive predictive flow data.

Recorded as part of the Section 319 Virtual Watershed Planning and Implementation Meeting on May 22-23, 2023, this presentation provides a 40-year history of the efforts made to rehabilitate streams impacted by Abandoned Mine Drainage (AMD) in Broad Top Township, Bedford County, PA. Hear stories on how Township officials leveraged funding and engaged partners to remediate AMD and improve water quality in Six Mile Run, Sandy Run, and Longs Run.
