Webinar: Mitigating Environmental Impacts of the Abandoned I-95 Embankment across Rumney Marsh
What happens when a major highway project is never finished, but the impacts remain?
On April 28th, we’re hosting a webinar with Ed Reiner, who spent decades studying wetlands with EPA and authored the most detailed analysis of how the abandoned I-95 embankment has affected Rumney Marsh.
If you’ve ever wondered why parts of the marsh function the way they do today, this is a great opportunity to learn more.
