The quality of Pennsylvania's waterways is under serious threat.

Pennsylvania boasts some 83,000 miles of waterways, more than any other state in the nation except Alaska. But the quality of those waterways is under serious threat including everything from active and abandoned coal mines to acid rain, aging infrastructure, urban development, industrial pollution, and even the impacts of seemingly mundane human activities such as lawn care.
