A large majority of our local remains very rural with little or no adequate water supply readily available. Stretching through the middle of our area is a section of State Route 22/322, the major east west limited access highway between State College (home to Pennsylvania State University, Main Campus) and the City of Harrisburg (Our State Capital). We also protect approximately 15 miles of the Norfolk Southern Railroad’s east coast line. Also flowing through our area is a section of the Juniata River.
