Scheduled speaker is Don Kehoe's guest Chris Clapp who will talk about the Long Island South Shore Estuary Reserve. Recently named Director, Chris is a Long Island native with a bachelor’s and master’s degree from Stony Brook University. Chris began his career at The Nature Conservancy, where he focused on hard clam and
eelgrass restoration in the Great South Bay. His work on water quality later led to contributions to the Suffolk County’s Reclaim Our Water Initiative, a comprehensive program aimed at improving water quality by addressing nitrogen pollution from outdated and failing septic systems. Chris's efforts earned international recognition, prompting him to lead the Ocean Sewage Alliance, a nonprofit dedicated to global water quality.
