The Department of Environmental Conservation hosts a monthly public Clean Water Conversation presentation series (formerly named the “Clean Water Lecture Series”) on a variety of clean water-related topics. Presentations are free and open to the public online via webinar (Microsoft Teams). This year, in response to the extreme flooding that Vermont experienced in 2023, each conversation will be centered around the intersection of clean water, climate change, and flood resiliency. See below for more information on upcoming Clean Water Conversations.
