Groups Want 'Buffers 100'

Environmental Groups are asking the state to adopt a new policy for development projects in Pennsylvania. The initiative is called "Buffers 100," and it would institute a 100-foot buffer zone between new development and natural waterways. The concept is to protect the waters from damaging pollution and other hazards, while also saving the development from damaging floods that can occur when waterways are interfered with or even redirected. Environmental groups and some state lawmakers are asking the state Department of Environmental Protection to adopt the policy.
