On April 13th, the Susquehanna Chapter of Trout Unlimited will host a presentation by Matt Long, Dis- trict Manager of the Lycoming County Conservation District, and Billy Clees, Coordinator of the County’s Cleanwater Action Plan (CAP), to describe the efforts being made to accomplish Lycoming County’s pollution reduction goals under the PADEP and US EPA Chesa- peake Bay Program.
