Wednesday, January 22, 12-1pm. Online.
The Dam Busters 201 series will start on January 22 with a webinar by Professor Noah Snyder of Boston College about his research on dam removal across New England. The series will continue on February 5 with a presentation about Stream Restoration by John Field. Future topics include dam safety, dam removal financing, and a separate series on community engagement. Please check the series website for webinar updates.
The goal of the series is to give municipal and NGO dam removal project managers the knowledge they need to successfully manage and carry out a dam removal project. Each webinar will feature an expert on a facet of dam removal and give participants time for questions and discussion. Participants can choose to attend the whole series or just those webinars that are most relevant to them.
This series was created through a collaboration of the Massachusetts Rivers Alliance, the Massachusetts Department of Ecological Restoration, and the Charles River Watershed Association. Dam Busters 101 series ran from 2023-2024 and engaged more than 500+ participants on many facets of the dam removal process.
