The purposes of this project were to quantify changes in this watershed since the original KC Rivers Conservation Plan was published in 1999, provide an update to the 120 recommendations made in that plan, and offer new recommendations as we continue the good works that have turned many of our streams and rivers to net-alkaline, fish-rich waterways.

Goodwill of the Southern Alleghenies, Pennsylvania CareerLink Cambria County, and Vision 2025 have partnered to create a combination summer workforce development and community project program named the Johnstown Youth Corps (JYC).  The JYC is designed to provide youth who are ages 16–24 with paid work experience through the completion of a variety of pre-planned planned projects.
