Revising the CCMP for the Delaware Estuary
Jennifer Adkins Executive Director Connecting people, science, and nature for a healthy Delaware River and Bay
Our Vision
Our Values
Working together for clean water, thriving fish and wildlife, and abundant recreational activities in and around the tidal Delaware River and Bay to support communities and a robust economy
• Science • Collaboration • Innovation • Balance • Strategic Investment
How was the revision process developed? • STAC and EIC Meetings • CCMP Workgroup Call • Administrative support/research by PDE
What are other NEPs doing?
• Technology support from EPA
What do we want out of this?
