The Allegheny Defense Project (ADP) would like to thank its supporters who recently awarded ADP funding to continue our Forest Watch Campaign.
The Allegheny Forest and River Watch project will train Allegheny Defense Project volunteers (and other interested groups e.g., sportsmen, and watershed groups) to protect public lands and watersheds through monitoring, formal comment, participation in public meetings, detailed documentation and research, and through administrative appeal and litigation when necessary. ADP requested funding from the Huplits Wildlife Grants Committee, the Fund for Wild Nature, and Heartwood to engage and activate members to join in forest protection efforts on the Allegheny, and to encourage all volunteers to initiate their own efforts on public lands and in their communities, which are under imminent threat from oil and gas drilling, including Marcellus Shale gas drilling.
