OTHER EDUCATION & OUTREACH PROJECTS
River Rally is the national conference of the River Network (www.rivernetwork.org). Held every two years, it provides educational and networking opportunities for those involved in river conservation. LFSWS funded one of its members to attend and to report back on national rivers issues relevant to the lower Farmington River and Salmon Brook. According to the LFSWS representative “several sessions focused on federal, state, and local policies, including the changes made to the Clean Water Act during the 2016–2020 federal administration and their real-world impacts on rivers, lakes, and wetlands.” River Rally provided the LFSWS representative with “valuable insights,” and “a renewed commitment to local efforts and a broader perspective on national challenges and opportunities in river stewardship.”
