[conference at estuaries.org]

A final reminder to submit your Dedicated Session proposals!

--------------
The Call for Sessions deadline for Restore America's Estuaries' 3rd
National Conference on Coastal and Estuarine Habitat Restoration is
February 15th! Download the Call for Sessions, Presentations and
Posters and the Proposal Application Form at
http://www.estuaries.org/conference.

The Conference will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana at the Hilton 
Riverside Hotel, December 9-13, 2006.

The Conference will bring timely national attention to the challenges
and opportunities to comprehensive coastal ecosystem restoration
throughout the U.S., and especially in Coastal Louisiana and the
northern Gulf Coast. Habitat restoration at all scales is essential to
the very fabric of our lives - the social, economic and ecological
well being of humans in the coastal landscape. Through field sessions,
participants will see first-hand how the city, the parishes and
coastal Louisiana are being rebuilt and restored. We will work to
ensure that the Conference supports the recovery process.

This Conference is the premiere nationwide forum focused solely on
advancing the knowledge, pace, practice, scale and success of coastal
and estuarine habitat restoration.  Incorporating the non-profit,
government, scientific, business, tribal and academic sectors, the
Conference will enable networking and communication throughout this
growing movement.

We invite you to submit a proposal for a DEDICATED SESSION for this
important National Conference. The deadline for proposals is WED.,
FEBRUARY 15th.

If you would like to submit a presentation or a poster, rather than a
full session, please see the full call for Sessions, Presentations and
Posters and submit your proposal by the due date listed below.
