You are invited to \u201cPossible Future Uses of New Lakefront at the Port of Milwaukee\u201d\u00a0on April 22, 2025, 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. CDT.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Center for Water Policy is hosting an Earth Day webinar featuring James Wasley, Professor at UW-Milwaukee and 2024-2025 Water Policy Scholar. He will present his research on the possible future uses of the\u00a0Dredged Material Disposal\u00a0<\/span>Facility<\/span>\u00a0at the Port of Milwaukee. This facility is part of a broader network of dredge-spoil sites across the Great Lakes. He will also discuss these newly created lakefront lands in a basin-wide context and include examples of closure and conversion to future public uses in other parts of the Great Lakes.<\/p>\n

Building on prior workshops, including the 2019 National Science Foundation Sustainable Urban Systems Workshop and the 2022 Great Lakes Higher Education Consortium Workshop, Prof. Wasley\u2019s research serves as a test case for collaboration among academic researchers, design professionals, and policymakers to develop innovative, nature-based design solutions for Great Lakes cities. In August of 2024, he convened\u00a0a meeting of experts\u00a0on issues associated with the dredged material disposal facilities and the future of this research aligns with the Freshwater Collaborative of Wisconsin\u2019s Grand Water Challenge on Great Lakes Management and Restoration.<\/p>\n

Prof. Wasley is Director of the Institute for Ecological Design and the former chair of the Department of Architecture. He is the past president of the Society of Building Science Educators and the Wisconsin Green Building Alliance: An Affiliate of the United States Green Building Council. He was a founding member of WGBA in 1997.<\/p>\n

This event is co-hosted by the Freshwater Collaborative of Wisconsin and is part of a quarterly online water symposium series in partnership with the Great Lakes Higher Education Consortium and Council of the Great Lakes Region.<\/p>\n
