Environmental Advisory Council

 

The Environmental Advisory Council (EAC) advises Borough Council and educates Borough residents on matters that affect the quality of the environment in the Borough, including those relating to the protection, conservation, management, promotion, and use of natural resources, including air, land and water resources, and issues relating to the effects of man-made and planted materials on the environment.


 

The EAC partners with other local organizations to achieve their goals.  Check out the websites of the Chester-Ridley-Crum (CRC) Watersheds Association at www.crcwatersheds.org and AFewSteps at www.afewsteps.org.
