Trees are sequestering carbon. We&#8217;re reducing our overall footprint by planting the trees and we are helping to improve soil health, watershed health, and the wildlife habitat areas that they will be planted in for both freshwater aquatic species and mammals, birds, insects, butterflies, and pollinators alike. It&#8217;s ecosystem restoration and it involves people from the coalfield communities getting their hands dirty and sometimes, their feet wet! stated Bobby Hughes, EPCAMR Executive Director.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ARRILogo.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12024\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/2020\/epcamr-joins-statewide-partnership-to-plant-10-million-trees-clean-up-pa-waterways\/arrilogo\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ARRILogo.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"225,225\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ARRI Logo\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;ARRI Logo&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ARRILogo.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12024 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ARRILogo.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ARRILogo.jpg 225w, https:\/\/epcamr.org\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ARRILogo-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n&#8220;We&#8217;re already a part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/arri.osmre.gov\/\">Appalachian Regional Reforestation Inititiative<\/a> (ARRI) in partnership with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osmre.gov\/\">Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement<\/a> and have signed the Statement of Mutual Intent (SMI) many years ago and have already pledged to work together to promote and encourage the restoration of high-value, hardwood forests on reclaimed coal mined lands in Appalachia using the <a href=\"https:\/\/arri.osmre.gov\/FRA\/FRApproach.shtm\">Forestry Reclamation Approach <\/a>and this partnership just makes sense to be a part of,&#8221; Hughes, said enthusiastically.<\/p>\n<p>The partnership will help achieve Pennsylvania\u2019s commitment to reduce pollution in local streams and rivers.
