Frank Wagner of Canaan Valley Institute will be one of the featured speakers at the dinner. Frank worked on the stream restoration and riparian buffer shown in the background. Upper Tennessee River Roundtable received 319 funding for this project in Tazewell which was coordinated by Corey Kanuckel of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Partners Program.

The Fall meeting is open to anyone. Just let us know by the end of today if you wish to attend so we can reserve dinner, which is $20. We will consider for approval a new five-year work plan and revisions to the UTRR bylaws. Click to see the documents.
