Keystone Clean Water Team Receives National Designation

Feb. 2, 2015 - PRLog -- DALLAS, Pa.—The Keystone Clean Water Team a Pennsylvania non-profit organization dedicated to improving the health, safety, and welfare of our community and the environment, recently received national recognition from the Nebraska-based Groundwater Foundation, which designated the organization as a Groundwater Guardian Community. This is the 15^th consecutive year the group has received the award.

“Our ROA, results oriented activities, in 2014 included the development of a social media program, Citizen Groundwater Database, and Private Well Owner Informational Workshops in Pennsylvania,” said Brian Oram, president of the Keystone Clean Water Team’s board of directors. “There is no better place to get the facts and learn from other citizens about our water resources and about protecting the health, safety and welfare of our community

Oram said that one of the greatest risks residents face stems from a general lack of awareness of the problems that, if left unchecked, can threaten the health and safety of their families.

“Information is our greatest asset and our new site will allow us to share it more efficiently and with more people than ever before,” Oram said. “We can help area residents keep their drinking water safe and learn more about conservation efforts that will protect this important natural resource for future generations.”

As part of its efforts to reach out to the community, the organization maintains the http://keystone.carbonwaters.org and the http://www.carbonwaters.org web portals, where more information can be found about the group’s activities.
