Massachusetts Association of Conservation Commissions

New England has over 14,000 dams and many of them have complicated histories.  In addition, dams by their very nature span watercourses that very often form the boundaries between different properties, municipalities, and states.  Multiple owners, sites that cross jurisdictions, and complicated issues of access and easements make working on dam repair, removal, or maintenance a tricky business. This EBC Dam Management webinar will explore these challenges and potential opportunities to overcome. Presentations from consultants, contractors, and the legal community will provide pathways forward for some of the more challenging sites in New England and beyond.

A robust panel discussion with the audience will conclude the webinar.

General Continuing Education Certificates are awarded by the EBC for this program (2.5 training contact hours). Certificates are automatically provided via email link for registered attendees at the conclusion of the webinar.
