The Lake Champlain Sea Grant is hosting a Green Infrastructure Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Summit in Burlington, VT. Join us for the day to learn about green infrastructure in Vermont and the New York side of the Lake Champlain basin.

Topics to be covered include municipal roads, green storm water infrastructure, restoration of natural systems, workforce development, maintenance-friendly strategies and future training. The summit will cover a variety of important topics and hopes to spur a discussion on what’s working, what’s needed and how best to move forward with maintenance. Coffee, snacks, lunch and a University of Vermont parking permit are all included in the registration fee.

Spring is on the way and that means LPP spring training/annual meeting and a chance to connect with your fellow LaRosa partners and the folks who process the samples you collect. This year’s meeting will be held in the same place as last year – Rm 019 of the Hills building on the UVM campus - on April 6th from 10am to 1pm. The meeting will consist of the usual overview and greeting from Jim Kellogg and a training session on handling, pre-logging, transporting, delivering, etc of samples from Dan Needham. We will also hear a presentation from Kristen Underwood of South Mountain R&CS on use of the reporting templates she developed over this last season with time for questions to follow. As always, Jim will be providing a spread of snacks and refreshments.
