Dear EEA Friend: 

Who isn’t drawn to the water’s edge, whether it be a lake, stream, river or ocean?   But what do we do when erosion or man-made effects degrade the water’s edge? Techniques for restoring streambanks and shorelines include traditional hard solutions and natural approaches that can be called “green” solutions.  Recently a hot topic in the news, our restoration team shows you some eye-opening results.   Read more about this by linking below to the EEA newsletter.
