Coastal Training Program
Vision
People managing coastal resources along the Gulf of Maine will value those resources and will understand the long term environmental, social, and economic consequences of their management decisions and actions.
About the Coastal Training Program
The Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve recognizes that local and regional decision-makers can largely determine the character of southern Maine's coastal areas. To assist municipal officials and other resource managers whose work impacts coastal environments, the Reserve is developing programs that will provide them with applicable science-based information. The following resources are currently available.
Mailing List
An e-mail list is available for those interested in hearing about CTP activities periodically.
