[Coral-List] Largest gathering of U.S. Coastal Professionals - Registration Now Open

[Kasey Jacobs]

Dear colleagues,

Restore America's Estuaries and The Coastal Society is proud to bring
together for a second time the coastal restoration and management
communities for an integrated discussion to explore issues, solutions, and
lessons learned in our work. The Summit will be December 10 - 15, 2016, in
New Orleans, Louisiana, USA.

The Summit will provide timely and much-needed attention to the challenges
and opportunities for coastal and estuarine restoration and management and
will bring together a unique blend of people who are involved in policy,
science, strategy, business, and on-the-ground restoration and management.
We expect over 1,000 attendees, over 100 exhibitors and more than 700
program participants, and we invite you to join us! For more on the Summit,
