The Montgomery County Environmental Learning Center is a state-of-the-art education facility, featuring hands-on, interactive exhibits and a green parking lot. The ELC was built using sustainable building practices and has received Silver LEED certification. 

The ELC educates citizens and organizations about environmental sustainability and conservation in the Montgomery County region – water, recycling, energy, wastewater, and solid waste. This education is part of an ongoing effort to manage and protect valuable natural resources, and to improve the quality of life for our citizens.
