Updates and Future of NWI & NWCA

Originally Broadcast on December 8th, 2021, 12:30 - 1:30 pm ET

Join us for updates to EPA's National Wetlands Condition Assessment and USFWS's National Wetland Inventory. While the EPA and USFWS data sets resultant from these ongoing monitoring projects do not establish regulatory jurisdictional boundaries, they are foundational in providing parameters for management and policy development. Hear about the updates from the Chief Scientists leading these projects and gain a better understanding of how the data is being collected, why it is being collected, and why it is so critical for regulators and consultants making determinations on WOTUS.

 

Presenters & Panelists

  • Gregg Serenbetz of EPA; Megan Lang of USFWS.

WEBINAR MODERATOR

Jeremy Schewe, PWS, Co-Founder & Chief Scientist, Ecobot

As an ecologist conducting wetlands delineations, threatened & endangered species surveys, and baseline ecological inventories for over 18 years around the world, I have been able to avoid the rise of tech for many years more than people in most other professions, due to the lack of quality tools available to environmental scientists. It is the 21st century, however, and the wheel of innovation is rolling through every profession, including earth sciences.

Technology impacts the way we live and work. Natural resources consulting is no exception.

Each webinar will address various aspects of the increasingly important role that technology plays in wetland science, and conclude with a Q&A panel discussion with consultant, regulatory, and tech development industry leaders.
