USCCLS Receives Enviro Star Award for 2002
Health Department Honors Pollution Preventers
Allegheny County Health Department has chosen USC
Citizens for Land Stewardship as one of 18 local organizations to be
honored with their Enviro Star Award for 2002. The award is presented
to businesses and institutions which implement voluntary pollution
prevention programs that go above and beyond what is required by County
environmental regulations. USCCLS was awarded two stars (out of a
possible three) for providing guidance that resulted in an
environmentally friendly Master Plan for Boyce Mayview Park, obtaining
grants to restore the steambank and habitat along McLaughlin Run, and
helping Allegheny Land Trust purchase and preserve the 78-acre
Wingfield Pines property along Chartiers Creek.
