Baltimore Marriott Hotel & Conference Center
March 22-25, 2009
The Chesapeake Research Consortium (CRC) and its partners NOAA’s Chesapeake Bay Office, MD Sea Grant College, the US Geological Survey, Cooperative Institute for Coastal and Estuarine Environmental Technology (CICEET), Chesapeake Bay Trust, Keith Campbell Foundation for the Environment, the US EPA Chesapeake Bay Program Office, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service convened a 4-d regional conference, Ecosystem Based Management (EBM): The Chesapeake Basin and Other Systems. The goal of the conference is to assess science supporting EBM, policy in implementing EBM, and current practices in place for EBM throughout the watershed. Lessons from other systems, in the US or abroad, were high-lighted as well. Keynote and plenary presentations on the first two days prefaced 27 sessions on EBM throughout the watershed, now and into the future. Presentations from the Conference and other related information will be available on the Conference webpage soon. Please see the EBM Conference website (http://www.chesapeakemeetings.com/EBM) for more information.Thanks to the interests of the sponsors, the CRC Regional Conferences from 15-25 years ago are back!
