Environmental Officials From China Visit DRBC

DRBC recently hosted a 20-member delegation from China's Ministry of Environmental Protection at the commission's West Trenton headquarters. The officials requested to visit the DRBC during their fact-finding journey to the United States to gain a better understanding of the commission's unique approach to managing the water resources in the Delaware River Basin without regard to political boundaries.

Executive Director Steve Tambini welcomed the delegation and Communications Manager Clarke Rupert provided an overview of the DRBC's organizational structure and programs. A post doctoral research associate from Princeton University offered translation services during the 2.5-hour visit.

In addition to numerous delegations from China, the DRBC in recent years has hosted visitors from South Korea, Brazil, and India.
