MLTC Seminar: Saltmarshes: Protecting and Restoring These Vital Land and Seascapes

This one-hour, online seminars by one of our lead conference sponsors is free and open to everyone, even if you’re not attending the Massachusetts Land Conservation Conference on Friday, March 13.

Saltmarshes are vital habitat for fish and wildlife and for coastal resilience for people and nature. To accelerate work on saltmarsh protection and restoration, the Coastal Working Group of the Resilient Lands Conservation Coalition developed an actionable work plan. The Nature Conservancy, the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management, and BSC Group, will share the objectives, barriers, needs, and actions identified in the plan as well as a GIS analysis and tool to help identify where there are opportunities to protect and restore saltmarshes and to assist their migration due to increased storm activity and rising sea levels.
