Open Sewer Atlas NYC Workshop

Open Sewer Atlas NYC will be hosting a workshop to share ideas, discuss the tools and resources needed to understand the sewer system, and identify best management practices for stormwater management in NYC. We will be sharing data and graphics developed through a year long study of NYC's sewer system including printed sewer maps and an online sewer mapping resource! We are excited to share our work with you and create an opportunity for organizations and individuals interested in improved stormwater management to come together. Join our conversation at the beautiful Hudson River Foundation space, thanks to the support of NYC Soil & Water Conservation District, Stormwater Infrastructure Matters Coalition, and NY-NJ Harbor & Estuary Program.

Please RSVP by January 30th.

New look for our website!

1/2/2015

 
We have been keenly aware of how outdated our website is.  But sometimes procrastination pays off.  Now there is a plethora of affordable do-it-yourself website design services out there, making it relatively easy to give our website a complete makeover.

To top it off, in 2014 New York City was given the approval to use .nyc for residents and businesses located in NYC. 

2015 will be a transition year in other ways.  We are launching the NYC Urban Soils Institute full steam ahead.  Look for up-to-date information on the "What's New" page of our website. 

Here is wishing everyone a peaceful and joyous new year!
