Technical Subcommittees
North Atlantic LCC Technical Committee Subgroups (Updated March 2015)
Terrestrial and Freshwater Wetlands
The LCC Technical Committee has been expanded to include a broad partnership of about 50 scientists representing a diversity of taxonomic, ecosystem and jurisdictional perspectives. Three sub-teams assess the needs and projects related to terrestrial/wetland, aquatic and coastal/marine systems and provide science and technical recommendations to the Steering Committee. Technical committee members and other experts participate in developing RFPs, reviewing proposals and overseeing approved projects. Existing regional partnerships including the Atlantic Coast Joint Venture, Atlantic Coastal Fish Habitat Partnership, Eastern Brook Trout Joint Venture, Northeast Partners in Amphibian and Reptile Conservation, Piping Plover Recovery Team, Northeast Regional Ocean Council and Northeast Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies help to direct the 20-plus active projects.
