An ELI Public Webinar
To effectually address climate change in wetland mitigation and restoration projects, functions lost to permitted impacts must be effectively and permanently replaced and projects must be sustainable over the long term. This fall, the Environmental Law Institute will host a two-part webinar series to highlight the ways state and tribal wetland programs can design compensatory mitigation projects in the face of climate change.
In the second installment of this series, ELI and expert panelists, including scientists, stream and wetlands restoration practitioners, and state regulatory experts, will consider strategies for incorporating climate considerations into planning efforts to anticipate changing conditions, reduce liability, and ensure long-term success at compensatory mitigation sites. They will also explain alternative endpoints, how they were developed, and how they can be applied to wetlands under changing conditions.
Panelists:
Rebecca Kihslinger, Ph.D., Senior Science and Policy Analyst; Director, Wetlands Program, Environmental Law Institute, Moderator
Tee Clarkson, Executive Director, Broad Water Innovations
Bob Siegfried, Senior Project Manager, Resource Environmental Solutions LLC
Ailla Wasstrom-Evans, Conservation Defense Fund and Education Manager, Land Trust Alliance
