Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The Unglaciated AlleghenyPlateau is located in an arc around southeastern Ohio into western Pennsylvania and West Virginia . This area is a dissected plateau , characterized by sandstone , shale , and many coal seams. This is the part of the AlleghenyPlateau that lies outside the continental glaciation of the ice age s. One of the most spectacular and scenic areas in this region is located in southeast Ohio, and is known as the Hocking Hills region. This area, similar to but smaller than the Red River Gorge in the Cumberland Plateau in Kentucky , features cliff s, rock shelter s and waterfall s. The Ohio River roughly bisects the Unglaciated AlleghenyPlateau in generally a north northeast to south southwest direction. Other significant rivers in the plateau include the Muskingum River and Tuscarawas River in Ohio, the Youghiogheny River and Allegheny River in Pennsylvania, and the Monongahela River and Kanawha River in West Virginia. The Kanawha River pronounced kuh NAW by locals is formed by the confluence of the New River Kanawha River New River and the Gauley River .

The Allegheny Conference on Community Development is an nonprofit , private sector leadership organization dedicated to economic development and quality of life issues for the greater Pittsburgh region, Pennsylvania , United States . It grew from efforts in the 1940s to coordinate improvements to regional transportation and the local environment. During World War II , the Pittsburgh Regional Planning Association President Richard King Mellon , Carnegie Mellon University Carnegie Institute of Technology President Robert Doherty college president Robert Doherty , and others organized local leaders to create a postwar planning committee. Pittsburgh Mayor David L. Lawrence and Allegheny County Commissioner John Kane were early recruits. The Allegheny Conference was officially established in 1944. The city s most visible problem in the first half of the 20th century was air pollution. The Conference brokered an agreement for phased in implementation of smoke control that became city policy. After the Conference voiced its concern for legal loopholes to the state legislature in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania , a comprehensive anti pollution law was passed in 1949 for Allegheny County. The clearer skies over the city both attracted new business and encouraged local corporations to retain and expand their Pittsburgh headquarters.
