About PREP's Technical Advisory Committee & the Focus of this Meeting
Our Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) serves as advisors on science related to the estuary program, State of Our Estuaries Report, and the implementation of PREP's Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan (CCMP). This meeting gathers scientists, resource managers, municipal staff, state and federal agency representatives, conservation organizations, restoration practitioners, and community partners interested in the health and future of the Great Bay Estuary.
It is open to anyone interested in joining. Please register if you plan to join.
This particular meeting will focus upon the state of eelgrass in the Great Bay Estuary. We will discuss what we know about the causes behind recent declines in Great Bay proper and explore opportunities for collaborative action that support future eelgrass recovery.
