Re: Naugatuck River channel restoration after dam removal, an important element should be restoration and protection of riparian vegetation along the Naugatuck River. See for example restoration projects done by the Deschutes Land Trust in Oregon.

Ny is socialist lie

And woods are being fell at a terrible rate all over Suffolk County so just not in the peconic money oh I mean land trust

Awesome 😎 nature and humans find a way but unfortunately it’s moving to Manhattan kansas

Happy New Year from a member in Oregon and thanks for all you have done.

I was at flushing meadows park today. Pissed in that river. My PP is going to your sound.

If eelgrass has been declining over decades, how is climate change involved? My understanding is that the turbidity of the water is the major cause for the decline.

Could you tap the paintwork a bit harder with your left hand? The one with the metal ring...

Hey do you know how to make all the attempted dilutions show up in the software tray after analysis. We are required to report all dilutions we attempt in any analysis. Our instrument is set up to do autodilutions once a sample is out of calibration range, but the software only generates the last attempted dilutions(the autodilutions) in the csv output file, hence we can’t report the initial failed dilution. Please help!

Rob!!! I just did an interview with Rob. Awesome!!

This was a very informative session and frustrating at the same time. Between big oil, chemical, and plastics companies the money working against us as citizens is overwhelming. If the tobacco industry has taught us nothing else, it's how hard it is to get people to stop using something that is backed by money and special interest lobbying, even when they know it's killing them! I watched a webcast on recycling a month or so ago and was horrified by how little is actually recycled, especially when it comes to plastic. Thank you!

absolutely amazing!! more please.

Next Steps You Can Take to Combat Plastic Pollution: Join the International Coastal Cleanup! As part of this effort by the Ocean Conservancy, Save the Sound hosts dozens of beach cleanups each year, removing thousands of pounds of plastic and other waste from marine environments.

What's the best way to keep informed on what is happening with the Dam removal??? Thanks!!!

Ground zero for Tic borne diseases like Lyme on the East Coast. Home to various former federal agencies who did biological weapons testing and other animal and human diseases testing.

Very informative video Elena! Well done!

As a layperson I am impressed that Save the Sound not only has this capability but thinks they needed to have this capability. Saving the Long Island Sound is indeed serious business. Thanks for sharing this.

They need to stop this stupidity of removing this water storage. Just so a few people can pay their selves on the back while destroying needed infrastructure. The fish ladder works just fine.

I’ve been catching striped bass in the river these past weeks here in CT and they have been spitting out sea lampreys and grass shrimp. But so many sea lamprey

I viewed this from Oregon but was born and raised in Connecticut and I am a member of Save the Sound and have interest in environmental and river issues. This was an informative video. I have not read your report yet but hope to do so. One comment on this video: For context it would be informative to mention the adverse impacts the river currently has on Long Island Sound. (I am thinking of water quality, beach , swimming, etc.)

It might be of interest to see what Oregon is doing with the fish passage issue: www.dfw.state.or.us/fish/passage/

I woke up and this was on but for some reason I couldn't change it lol I actually found it interesting. Thanks

Thank you for the thorough discussion of all the outstandingly remarkable values which supports federal designation of Plum Island a national monument. I think the geographic location and relative isolation of Plum Island enhances these values which further supports the national monument designation.

This area seems to have some important values in terms of wildlife habitat that needs to be identified and promoted rather than a vision of a park with multi-use hardened jogging/trail-biking purposes etc. - a place where elementary school children can have a educational bird nest box project for example has more power politically in my opinion.

Damn the dams...

You are all heroes! Looking forward to more progress for the Sound, Plum Island, and wildlife in 2024! Happy holidays! Thank you for the work you do!

The sound quality issue in some of the clips is impacting the message and needs to be fixed in future presentations. The solution may be as simple as microphone placement and testing before recording the presentation.

Good job done in the video in putting faces of Save the Sound together with accomplishments and ongoing projects. It helps increase public awareness that Save the Sound is really a grassroots organization that depends on us and people like us for all that is accomplished.

Excellent information presented in an accessible way that deserves public dissemination. How well is the public education strategy understood, i.e. what works best?

Is there a link to the CT environmental justice map?

should be no argument, find the funds and remove the dam as soon as possible

Love it. Restore Reconnect 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🐋

Yes,...get rid of those useless Dams !!!...restore Nature to its pristine & glorius past,..before the Industrial dissatrous intervention.

Wow good program thank you is Carlos the Security Officer from 1501 service entrance

Its analysing water or soils for nutrient levels of analytes like Nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, phosphate, silicate, chloride, chromium etc

Whats eelgrass?

Well done.

Amazing work! Eelgrass is such an important part of healthy aquatic ecosystems, it is great to see these restoration efforts in action 👏🏽🌿

Love what you guys are trying to do! Appreciate the effort! Saw a green sea turtle in the sound recently, how cool would it be to see them return in numbers and graze on the eel grass

Man, this deserves more views! Thank you for your efforts to save the eelgrass and the ecosystem!

An interesting project. I am curios about the planting. Is it like gardening where you drop the clams in a pattern of rows using GPS?

The EIS needs to include not only issues related to the construction of the the facility but also the issues related to the operation of the facility including adverse impacts of commercial services provided by the facility and the adverse impacts of obtaining these services.

Those things slamming shut woukd make a great drum sample.

Has Connecticut ever considered a process for legislation by public initiative similar to Oregon for example?

The New Haven Bioswale is similar. The climate is high desert with snowmelt the primary issue for runoff. Salt is prohibited for snow/ice management on Oregon roads. The Deschutes River is the focus of activities for the city of Bend with multi use parks and all-weather trails adjacent to protected riparian areas which support birds and other wildlife. The Deschutes River has regulatory protections as a Oregon Scenic Waterway and Federal Wild and Scenic River. There are many e-Bird birdwatching hotspots along the river.

Whats it doing?

What are the prospects for success of eelgrass projects like this? Are not the environmental conditions which caused eelgrass depletion in the first place still present? Looking at Long Island Sound as a whole have we mapped the area for eelgrass health. Regarding the use of hatchery clams vs wild clams, it would be interesting to know more about this issue. Is it not similar to the adverse sustainability consequences of hatchery fish vs wild fish in rivers and lakes?

Save The Sound is doing outstanding work to provide the science based tools for understanding, managing and protecting Long Island Sound. Clearly the status quo is not good enough in some areas and the trends in other areas should be a warning sign.

What depth do you measure the dissolved oxygen? on the bottom?
