2009-2013 Pennsylvania Outdoor Recreation Plan

Every five years, Pennsylvania produces a State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) in order to remain eligible to receive federal Land and Water Conservation Funds (LWCF). The plan is designed to direct the use of LWCF funds that may come to the state. The required elements of the plan include a statewide assessment of outdoor recreation needs and supplies, an action plan for future steps to help enhance outdoor recreation, an update on the status of the state’s, wetland resources, and extensive opportunity for public participation.
