Getting Buff: How Riparian Buffers Can Strengthen Community Resilience

This webinar will discuss how protecting riparian buffers—vegetated strips of land along waterways and waterbodies—through local ordinances can provide water quality, wildlife habitat, economic, and recreational benefits. We will cover existing statewide riparian buffer regulations and identify the gaps in that regulatory scheme that can, and should, be filled by local ordinances. We will discuss legal issues that local officials should be aware of when drafting local ordinances pertaining to riparian buffers and review PennFuture’s model riparian buffer ordinance.

CM law credit is pending approval. You must attend the webinar live in order to earn CM credit.
