The Center for Agricultural Conservation Assistance Training (CACAT) provides education and technical assistance to conservation professionals and others working in the ag sector to support the implementation of best management practices and conservation activities on Pennsylvania's farms. 

The Water Resources Team programs focus on water quality education that helps to protect and restore Pennsylvania's abundant waterways and groundwater supplies. Programming includes collaborative watershed restoration efforts, agricultural and urban stormwater management education, safe drinking water clinics, and more.
