Creek: Ridley
Date: May 21, 2007
CRC and Delco Manning Trout Unlimited have announced a new partnership with Ridley Creek State Park to rid a 15 acre floodplain with wetlands along Ridley Creek of Japanese knotweed and other invasives, and to re-establish the historical floodplain forest and wetland plants. The site is the section of the Park which begins below the Barren Rd bridge, and lies almost wholly in the 100 year floodplain. On April 15th, CRC and TU volunteers cut and treated vines. On May 5th, Lyondell employees worked with CRC members planting trees along the trees in exposed canopy areas as part of this year's Global Care Day project.
