Indigenous peoples have lived on the land we now call Kentucky for over 12,000 years. We want to acknowledge the deep history of this land and the people who still live here today.

Brian has a Ph.D. and M.S. in Biology from Florida State University and a B.S. in Evolution and Ecology from the University of California, Davis. With some 20 years of experience working as an aquatic ecologist, Brian brings a whole-systems approach to his position as the Licking River Basin Coordinator, working with the stakeholders, scientists, volunteers, government entities, engineers, and communities, to improve and care for Kentucky waterways.
Many communities are reengaging and reinvesting in their local waterways. In this informative presentation, I will discuss the role of Basin Coordinators, our liaison activities between local communities and the state, and specifically, the Maysville Limestone Creek revitalization efforts.
