Seven researchers and two high school teachers involved with the project developed the curriculum. Each researcher focused on a different aspect of the curriculum depending on their expertise. Dr. Sharon Moran, a Research Fellow with the CSC, was responsible for coordinating the research.

The curriculum addressed areas such as environmental science, aquatic biology issues, and planning issues related to environmental education. The project and curricula was provided to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection for use by educators in the state.
