Project EMPACT: Chesapeake Bay Watershed, Upper Susquehanna/

The Project Area:
Upper Susquehanna and Lackawanna River
 |
The project is funded by
EPA's Program for Environmental Monitoring for Public Access and Community
Tracking (EMPACT). The ultimate goal of EMPACT is to provide public
access to clearly-communicated, time-relevant (timely or real-time),
useful, and accurate environmental monitoring data in an ongoing and
sustainable manner in the larger United States metropolitan areas.
Environmental monitoring consists of the systematic measurement,
evaluation, and communication of physical, chemical, and biological
information intended to give insight into environmental conditions.
EMPACT seeks to assist the American public in day-to-day decision making
about their health and the environment.
