San Francisco Estuary Project - State of the Estuary Conference 1996

The 1996 Conference (held in October at the Presidio in San Francisco) was a big success!

More than 600 Bay Area scientists, policy makers, resource managers, educators and other interested members of the public were in attendance over the three days of the conference. Presentations and panel discussions covered a broad range of issues including the science, management and economics of the Estuary. The Conference was jam-packed with some of the best minds around the region who came together to help craft a new mosaic of the State of the Estuary. Check out the Conference Schedule -- which was modified only slightly in the last moments -- to get a full picture of who was there and what they spoke about.

A full conference round-up is now available.

If you'd like to order a copy of the Conference Abstract Book, at no charge, then send email or call 510/286-0460. Also, the Estuary Project would once again like to extend many thanks to the conference sponsors, without whom the Conference would not have been possible.

The next State of the Estuary Conference will be held in 1998!
