The Fishers Island Seagrass Management (FISM) Coalition will be holding its first informational webinar of the summer from 12-1pm July 27th

This presentation will review the Coalition’s activities spanning the past year and encourage community involvement in the drafting of a seagrass management plan for the island. Webinar attendees will learn how they can provide personal comments and input so that the management plan is representative of all users of the island’s coastal waters.

As an active partner and co-chair of the FISM Coalition, the Museum is pleased to promote the dedicated work taking place to protect the Island’s seagrass. We encourage you to learn more about the plan that FISM is developing to preserve and manage local seagrass beds.

This FISM Coalition meeting will feature a discussion on possible management actions to include in a seagrass management plan and information on the proposed CT National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR).
