HR 177 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A Resolution recognizing the month of April 2025 as "Low Head Dam Public Safety Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania.

This resolution designates April 2025 as "Low Head Dam Public Safety Awareness Month" in Pennsylvania. It is a symbolic measure intended to raise public awareness about the dangers of low head dams - hazardous water structures that can create powerful, unpredictable currents. The resolution does not create new laws, allocate funding, or impose requirements; it solely serves to highlight safety concerns during this designated month. It was referred to the Environmental & Natural Resource Protection committee but was ultimately laid on the table and not advanced further.
