Upper Delaware Preservation Coalition
646-205-2724 PO BOX 91 Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania 18435 |
How much of an area does the UDPC represent? UDPC has members from all over the country who are interested in helping to protect the Upper Delaware River. The area we are most concerned with is roughly from the Delaware Water Gap and north to the headwaters of the Upper Delaware River. Does UDPC tell people how to use their land? We don't have the right to tell you how to use the private property you own. We work with land owners to use smart planning practices as well as planning boards and local communities to strengthen ordinances to prevent unethical developers from taking advantage of our area. We believe that thriving business and protecting the environment can exist together. |
