[SEMCO] 2017 State of Wellfleet Harbor Conference, Saturday November 4th at Wellfleet Elementary

[Jenette Kerr]

The 15th annual State of Wellfleet Harbor Conference will be held on Saturday, November 4 from 8:30 AM to 2:00 PM at the Wellfleet Elementary School at 100 Lawrence Road. The event is free and open to all.

Appropriately, this year's conference has a water theme- how to protect and improve local waterways, how best to manage wastewater, as well as the threat of rising seawater as the climate warms. Among this year's presentations:

Sea Level is Rising and Wellfleet Harbor is Sinking: What Will the Future Look Like?
An Update on Wellfleet Harbor Dredging
The Who, What, When, Where, and Why of Horseshoe Crabs in Wellfleet Harbor: Results of a Three-Year Study
Herring River Restoration Can Open Closed Shellfish Beds: The Seawater Solution
Acoustic Cues Associated with Cetacean Mass Stranding Events

Food donations are being made by Mac's Seafood, the Wellfleet Box Lunch, Wellfleet Marketplace, The Wicked Oyster, and PB Boulangerie.
