Riparian Buffer Installation
Tweet Share
For our project, we propose the installation of riparian buffers in central Pennsylvania and on Bucknell's campus. Riparian buffers are areas of vegetation between land and streams that promote healthy waterways by providing the streams with protection from harmful pollutants and erosion. Currently, many streams in the surrounding area lack proper buffers. On Bucknell's campus, this means that after heavy rainfall flooding occurs much more easily. On nearby farms, agricultural runoff enables chemicals to seep into the streams. By installing riparian buffers our project aims to fix these problems.
