S.H.O.R.E” Program is being developed to provide guidance and training for using nature-based design practices to protect against shoreline erosion in Maine. A network of state agencies\, shoreline practitioners\, service providers\, and researchers have been developing this program over the past several years to respond to this pervasive need for more resilient shorelines in response to severe weather events. Our goal is to provide homeowners\, contractors\, resource managers\, and community leaders with how-to information on diagnosing sources of erosion\, identifying stabilization design practices for a site\, and to provide a place to learn about different project examples from throughout the state to successfully use nature-based designs. You can also learn more at OUR SHORE\, Maine DEP. \nNathan Robbins is the Climate Change Specialist at Maine Department of Environmental Protection. His work supports capacity building and accelerating the use of best practices for resilience and mitigation. \nParker Gassett is the assistant director for the Maine Climate Science Information Exchange Office (MCSIE). This office at the 91 accelerates climate solutions by strengthening connections between research and decision-making. \nJohn Maclaine leads the Nonpoint Source Training Center at the Maine Department of Environmental Protection. His work upholds the Training Center Programs and resources which provide tools and practices to prevent this nonpoint source pollution. \nJordan Kimball assists the Nonpoint Source Training Center at the Maine Department of Environmental Protection. His work upholds the Training Center Programs and resources which provide tools and practices to prevent this nonpoint source pollution. \n  URL:/mitchellcenter/event/talk-our-shore-program-for-nature-based-strategies-for-shoreline-erosion/ LOCATION:ME CATEGORIES:Mitchell Center Events ORGANIZER;CN="Mitchell Center":MAILTO:umgmc@maine.edu END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
