Buffalo Niagara Riverkeeper and the US Army Corps of Engineers are working together on the development of a Niagara River Watershed Management Plan. These workshops are the initial public events that will start a multi-year effort to prepare this Plan.
At the workshops we will introduce the project and attendees will help identify Niagara River watershed concerns, opportunities and priorities. For background information about the Niagara River watershed go to bnriverkeeper.org and click on Programs, then Habitat, then Niagara Habitat Study.
