EPCAMR Staff writes "The Schuylkill County Conservation District will hold a public conservation meeting on Thursday, January 29, 2004 at 7 PM at the Schuylkill County Ag Center Conference Room, Rt. 901, Gordon Nagle Trail, Pottsville.
Dr. Thomas Waters, Professor Emeritus, Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation Biology, University of Minnesota will present "Mudding the Waters, America's Worst Pollution".
Sedimentation of our streams is the most important river pollutant in America, from the standpoint of both quality and economic impact. It is a non-point pollutant and therefore difficult to detect, prevent, and control.
Dr. Waters will discuss the sources, biological effects, and control measures, including the single major procedure that, if fully implemented, can give our country's streams full protection from this scourge.
Dr. Waters has devoted more than 33 years in teaching and research with scientific specialization in freshwater ecology.
In addition to 61 publications, Dr. Waters has written 5 book; his latest in 2000 titled, Wildstream:
A Natural History of the Free-flowing River.
Come hear Dr. Waters, a special treat for Schuylkill County!
For more information or inclement weather cancellation, call Craig R. Morgan at the Schuylkill County Conservation District at 570-622-3742, ext. 111.
