November 13 thru 17 – Coastal and Estuarine Habitat Restoration - Galveston
JOIN US for the 5th National Conference on Coastal and Estuarine Habitat Restoration on Galveston Island, Texas, November 13-17, 2010. Restore America’s Estuaries' (RAE) national conference brings together the best and the brightest in the coastal habitat restoration community all united in the search for solutions to the needs of our coastal ecosystems.
The 2010 conference focus, Preparing for Climate Change, while a concern for all coastal regions, has particular resonance for coastal Texas and Galveston, still recovering from the damage inflicted by Hurricane Ike in 2008. Through the conference, we will work to restore resiliency to Galveston's shoreline through sea- and marsh-grass planting projects; stimulate the local economy through the business generated during our five-day conference; push Galveston's ongoing restoration needs to national attention through our press work and through the attendance of senior federal officials; and increase the direction and momentum of new resources to aid the Galveston area.
