February 14th, The Coalition joined CDRW’s NY State Lead, Friends of the Upper Delaware River (FUDR)   Coalition NY members, and other conservation advocates in Albany to show support and advocate for the $400 million NYS Environmental Protection Fund (EPF). 

In the Upper Delaware River Region, the Coalition has strong connections to New York communities. The Delaware headwaters set the stage for the health and wellbeing of the entire watershed, and the Coalition has a proud history of advocating for New York State funding to make its way to the region, protecting our watershed and supporting Upper Delaware communities. In the recent past, the Coalition, and our New York partners, have celebrated significant funding allocations for the headwaters, including dedicated line-item funding in last year’s state budget.
