Living Shoreline Workshop Part III
A Design Charrette
The third workshop of a three part series was held on September 15th, 2016 at Harkness Memorial Sate Park Waterford, CT.
You are invited to participate in a Living Shoreline Design Charrette at Harkness Memorial State Park. Teams made up of workshop participants will design a living shoreline for the on-site beach/dune, bluff or tidal wetland system. The designs will be presented and critiqued from a regulatory perspective by a panel of municipal, state and federal officials. The goal of this charrette is for participants to gain a better understanding of living shoreline designs and what will and will not be permitted in Connecticut.
