All across our watershed, buried streams run beneath our feet.

Many of the Charles River’s 30+ tributaries have long suffered the effects of this approach to water management––tributaries that are culverted, straightened, and armored face impaired water quality, impeded fish passage, increased flooding, invasive species growth, loss of critical wildlife habitats, and more.

But we’re bringing buried streams back to light and back to life! Join us for a webinar to learn about stream restoration projects in the Charles River Watershed that have improved water quality, reconnected habitats, and created climate resilience and new recreation opportunities. Get a preview of our work to restore streams like Cheesecake Brook in Newton, Canterbury Brook in Mattapan, and the Muddy River in Boston. 

Speakers include River Science & Restoration Program Manager Lisa Kumpf, Climate Resilience Specialist Robert Kearns from CRWA, Brandon Schmitt, Natural Resources Commission Director in Wellesley, and Bill Doyle, Conservation Commissioner in Waltham.
