In the Works at Joy Street (AMC HQ)

One initiative of the AMCs' Conservation Staff has been focusing on the past year is the Massachusetts Forest Reserves Initiative. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts is consdering designating some areas of State Forests into Forest Reserves, a more protected designation for state lands.

See all the gory details HERE.

We'll be helping the Joy St. staff as the process move on from the Public Hearings that occured in 2005. Stay tuned.
