We celebrated a ribbon-cutting on a new community park in Ambler, PA—an achievement made possible through years of dedicated effort and collaboration. This milestone wouldn’t have been possible without a strong, long-term partnership between the community, thanks to Community Advisory Group efforts, EPA, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources & Whitpain Township.

Countless community meetings and resident input helped shape this park into a vibrant space that reflects the needs of the town. Together, through persistent collaboration and shared vision, we’ve created a place for everyone to enjoy and connect. Thank you to everyone who played a part in making this project a reality! This ribbon cutting shows what Superfund and community partnership can achieve: protection, revitalization, and shared public space. 🌳

We are proud to showcase the environmental stewardship of our nation’s students. Join us in congratulating our President's Environmental Youth Award recipient: Starry Yang from Newtown Square, PA. 🌍💚

Starry Yang created Ecosquash to recycle squash balls, partnering with players, coaches, and the American Recycling Center to turn thousands of used squash balls into playground and track surfaces. Her initiative aims to expand globally, reducing the sport’s environmental impact through community-driven recycling efforts.

🐟 EPA’s Chesapeake Bay Program Office recently visited the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission's Huntsdale Fish Hatchery in Carlisle, PA. 🎣

We learned about the hatchery’s trout stocking and stream restoration efforts—producing tens of thousands of fish each year, including native Brook Trout, a key species of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement. 🌱🌿

The team helped stock trout in local streams and we observed stream restoration projects funded by EPA Chesapeake Bay Program through their Most Effective Basins Grant Program. 💧

This is a great example of cooperative federalism in action—partners working together to protect and restore our environment.

EPA is awarding funding to Mid-Atlantic states—Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia—to monitor water quality at beaches and keep you safe while swimming! 🏖️💧

Thanks to this funding, states will be able to provide timely alerts if bacteria levels rise and swimming conditions become unsafe. ⚠️ The BEACH Act makes this funding possible.

Enjoy the beaches across the region this summer and stay informed about where you visit.
