HARRISBURG -- Sen. Ted Erickson (R-Delaware) will chair a public hearing in Upper Darby Township on Friday on watershed planning and management.

 

The hearing is scheduled for Friday, April 21, beginning at 10 a.m. in the Upper Darby Township Municipal Building at 100 Garrett Road.

 

Senator Erickson, chairman of the Senate Local Government Committee, said the purpose of the hearing will be to solicit testimony on the issue of watershed planning and management on the part of local governments.

 

"The committee is studying watershed planning and management, especially in regard to the manner in which development in upstream municipalities affects municipalities in downstream areas.  Witnesses will also discuss proposals to alleviate flooding problems in downstream municipalities," said Erickson.
