Recorded on June 30, 2026, this Rumney Marsh Conservancy webinar features Ed Reiner, retired EPA wetland scientist, discussing the restoration of tidally restricted salt marshes at Rumney Marsh.

The presentation explores how restoration planning must be balanced with flood protection for surrounding neighborhoods, including the role of tides, restricted water flow, culverts, tide gates, marsh health, and long-term stewardship.

Rumney Marsh is the largest remaining salt marsh in the metro Boston area and a designated Area of Critical Environmental Concern. This webinar is intended for residents, local officials, conservation partners, and anyone interested in understanding how restoration opportunities can be approached carefully, practically, and responsibly.
