REGISTRATION IS OPEN FOR THE ARKANSAS WATER WEBINAR
The Arkansas Water Resources Center will host the next Arkansas Water Webinar Series in June 2024. This presentation will focus on the restoration of Muskegon Lake and its wetlands in Michigan. The presentation will cover water quality, ecosystem restoration, and socioeconomics. Muskegon Lake is a coastal river mouth lake with a history of environmental issues. Many restoration efforts reconnecting wetlands have improved water quality and lake habitat. A wetland restoration project reduced phosphorus concentrations from over 0.8 ppm (mg/L) to 0.03 ppm (mg/L), wow! Research efforts provided a sound basis for restoration design and implementation. These restoration efforts also showed a 5.8:1 return on investment with $1 billion in increased in shoreline development. The region experienced unexpected issues about public access and “blue gentrification.” A water [success!] story from which we all can learn from, even here in Arkansas as well as across the USA.
Dr. Alan Steinman, PhD, Allen and Helen Hunting Research Professor, Robert B. Annis Water Resources Institute, and Grand Valley State University, Allendale, Michigan will be the speakers for this webinar.
This event is scheduled for Thursday, June 27, 2024, from noon to 1 pm CDT.
