PACE Experience:

Students will be creating and conducting a survey on behalf of the Pedler River Institute on Watershed use in the Amherst County area.

After the local residents have been surveyed on their knowledge of the local watershed and the environmental impact they have, results will be analyzed and a final report provided to the Pedlar River Institute for use in future planning and educational opportunities.
