The LRCA leads the protection and restoration of the Lackawanna River Watershed to advance clean water, healthy ecosystems, and strong communities.
Your support for our nonprofit also aids the work of our land trust affiliate, the Lackawanna Valley Conservancy (LVC). The mission of the LVC is to promote the conservation and preservation of natural, scenic, historical, and cultural resources in the Lackawanna River Watershed and nearby areas of Northeast Pennsylvania.
In 2016, the LVC Board reorganized as part of a joint strategic planning and management initiative with the Board of the then "Lackawanna River Corridor Association." The name of the LRCA was changed to the Lackawanna River "Conservation" Association to more fully reflect the combined but distinct missions of both organizations. The name change officially went into effect in January 2018.
You can find USGS information for three Lackawanna River sites.
