FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Osceola Township, Tioga County, PA – Mansfield University Watershed Management Students, Tioga County Conservation District, Tioga County Emergency Services, Upper Susquehanna Coalition, Steuben Soil and Water District and Osceola Township are joining forces to evaluate the Holden Brook Watershed.
The Watershed Assessment will give us the groundwork necessary to look for future grants to enhance and protect the area. Holden Brook has experienced multiple flooding events over the last year, which has led to stream erosion, water rescues, and property damage.
This project is very interesting as it crosses state boundaries and really shows how multiple agencies and groups can pull together to work towards a common goal. The students will be evaluating the stream banks, floodplain area, vegetation along the stream, and also making recommendations as to areas that may have potential for projects.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact Erica Tomlinson at the Tioga County Conservation District at 570-724-1801 ext. 1300.
