Wetlands: Values, Threats, & Protection
September 21, 2020@3:00 pm-September 23, 2020@4:30 pm
Hudsonia and the Hudson River Estuary Program are pleased to offer this three-part webinar on wetlands conservation.
Mon-Wed, 21-23 September 2020 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm each day
Despite some protections in federal and state wetland regulations, wetlands are still being lost and degraded.
In three 1.5 hour sessions, we will discuss the ecological and water resource values of wetlands; how to identify unmapped wetlands on site plans and other maps using online tools and in the field; the status of state and federal regulatory programs for wetlands; and how to extend local protections to these important resources.
