How was the Nippersink Creek Watershed Plan created?
A watershed plan for Nippersink Creek was completed in 1996 by the Nippersink Creek Watershed Planning Committee. The Watershed Planning Committee is comprised of a diverse group of landowners, farmers, environmental groups, and business people, with technical assistance provided by various resource agencies and consultants. The 1996 plan provided a summary of watershed history, physical, chemical and biological characteristics of the watershed at that time, and an outline for general watershed protection guidelines, and recommendations for restoration and protection of natural resources throughout the watershed.
