SUMMARY:The Beginning of Swimming Season at the End of the World
DESCRIPTION:A participatory archival activation about swimming\, flooding\, and water relationships created for the 2024 Culture Push symposium. Visit the archive. Share your own water stories\, feelings\, fears\, and memories. \nThe Beginning of Swimming Season at the End of the World is part of a research and public art project about swimming\, flooding\, and water relationships called Open Water. So far the project has been conducted on the coast of Red Hook and shores of Coney Island Creek. \nDuring the symposium\, in collaboration with Interference Archive\, the Gowanus Dredgers\, Faith Toran (climate adaptation specialist\, artist)\, and Jordan Packer (urban ecologist)\, we will install an interactive archive that will change and expand through the course of the symposium. Visit the archive. Learn about water experiences and practices\, urban swimming\, and coastal ecology. Share your own water stories\, feelings\, fears\, and memories. \nWe’ll be recording anonymous oral histories\, annotating a non-scientific map of NYC waterways\, inviting additions to our incomplete climate action emergency toolkit\, and asking questions emerging from research and an ongoing dialogic and somatic exchange that has been ongoing with the videographer iki nakagawa for the past year. \nCurated by Nora Almeida

SUMMARY:Let’s Restore the Gowanus Canal Together: Understanding the Natural Resource Damages Assessment Plan\, Part Two
DESCRIPTION:Commonly referred to as NRDA\, the Natural Resource Damages Assessment is an important piece of the Gowanus Canal Superfund project that will help restore fish\, wildlife\, habitat and human uses of the canal that were lost to both industrial pollution and the more recent remediation work. \nThe group of federal agency representatives that will oversee this process recently released a draft of the plan (PDF) for how they will determine what impacts have occurred\, the economic value of those loses (a.k.a. damages)\, and what restoration or enhancement projects will receive funding from the pool of money collected as a result. Now\, they want to hear feedback from the community on this proposed plan through a public comment process. \nThe public comment period has been extended and is now due June 14. It’s just the first of many steps along the way to a canal that has more wildlife\, more habitat and more boating and fishing access (we hope). You can help! \nThese sessions\, hosted by local journalists Lillian Ruiz and Celeste LeCompte\, are meant to help Dredgers (and other Gowanus neighbors who want to join) better understand the NRDA process\, dig into the current draft plan\, and equip ourselves to provide effective input on the process. At this session\, we’ll be helping YOU craft comments to submit. \nNo experience or prior knowledge is needed\, and all levels of familiarity with the Canal and the cleanup are welcome. \nThis is part two\, you can review part one here. \n\nDownload the Gowanus Canal draft assessment plan\nRead more about the NRDA process\n\n

SUMMARY:Understanding the NRDA Process - Part Two
DESCRIPTION:As part of the ongoing Superfund cleanup of the Gowanus Canal\, the federal government is required to study the impact of both the historic pollution and its cleanup on natural resources (fish\, wildlife\, air\, water\, etc.) and their uses (everything from habitat to breathing to boating) — and to identify funding and projects that will restore or replace those services. \nIt’s a complicated process — known as the Natural Resources Damages Assessment (and Restoration) — that involves multiple federal agencies\, the companies and state agencies held responsible for the pollution and its cleanup\, and people like us — the community! There’s a lot of jargon\, some very confusing grey areas\, and a lot of formal processes\, too. \nThe federal agencies responsible for the Gowanus Canal NRDA have released their draft plan for how they’ll start their research\, and you can make comments on that plan before June 14. Join us for a hopefully fun evening of learning together what it is\, how it works\, and how you can make an impact on restoration plans for the canal. This is part two\, you can review part one here. \n\nDownload the Gowanus Canal draft assessment plan\nRead more about the NRDA+R process\n\n

SUMMARY:Earth Week Shoreline Clean & Green
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Bunker (2 19th St.) for an Earth week shoreline clean & green!  \nWe’re going to get the site ready for the upcoming season opening in May. Our plans include working on the OPTI habitats\, creating some planters on the site and sprucing up everything to get ready to welcome the public for walk-up paddles and guided tours.  We’ll also continue projects started last work-day. \nWear clothes you don’t mind getting a bit messy in. We have limited facilities on-site (a porta-san) so bring potable water and some snacks\, and don’t forget your sunblock! If the weather is nice we may conclude the day with a quick paddle.
