Venango Dirt Gravel & Low Volume Roads Program Workshop Slated

The Venango Conservation District will once again be holding an educational workshop providing all kinds of information about getting Dirt Gravel and Low Volume program projects on the ground.  The Dirt Gravel and Low Volume Roads program is managed by conservation district across Pennsylvania providing administration, education and funding to install practices on rural roads that reduce non-point source pollution to the waterways of Pennsylvania.

The 2019 Venango workshop will include classroom sessions where participants will learn about bonding roads, prevailing wage requirements, changes to the PA One Call laws, Erosion & Sediment Control plans, stormwater management and much more.  This year we're adding site visits to the day.  We'll be visiting three sites this year where participants can view some projects on dirt gravel and low volume roads that are working well to reduce pollution.

Registration is required to attend the workshop and lunch and transportation to the site visits will be provided.  Call our office at 814-676-2832 or email us at [email protected] to register or to find out more.  The deadline to register will be Friday April 5th.
