We hope you can join this webinar — part of the NOAA Marine Debris Program’s online webinar series, Salvaging Solutions to Abandoned and Derelict Vessels!

Each month’s webinar features experts on a topic related to abandoned and derelict vessels (ADVs). The goal of the series is to share perspectives from across the country on common issues arising from abandoned and derelict vessels, in hopes to help communities better deal with them.

This month's webinar, "Weathering Stormy Waters," will focus on how ADVs are addressed before, during, and after major storm events. It will be presented by the following specialists:

• Scott Lundgren, Director - NOAA Office of Response and Restoration (OR&R)
• Matthew Bethel and Niki Pace - Louisiana Sea Grant
• Nilda Jimenez, PhD - Puerto Rico Department of Natural and Environmental Resources (DNER)
• Michele Jacobi - NOAA Office of Response & Restoration, Assessment and Restoration Division

Please join us, and mark your calendar for the fourth Wednesday of the month at 3 pm ET/2pm CT/12 pm PT/10 am HT — and feel free to share the series with anyone with an interest in abandoned and derelict vessels!
