Training Opportunity
Vermont DEC and Partners are developing methods and mapping to identify high priority projects to restore and protect stream, wetland, and floodplain functions. The Vermont Functioning Floodplains Initiative (FFI) web application has been updated to include habitat co-benefits. This latest revision builds on recent updates to increase functionality and improve user experience by adding instream and floodplain habitat to the water quality and resiliency functions.
A consulting team and the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) will provide a summary of the new habitat methods, show where the habitat information is now available in the web tool, and walk through some example projects.
