Nicholas Institute of Environmental Policy Solutions

[Greg S]

Some of you in the US East Coast might be interested in the research currently being conducted by some folks from Duke University. Linwood Pendleton, director of Duke’s Nicholas Institute of Environmental Policy Solutions and his crew are cruising the Atlantic ICW and Chesapeake Bay on Linwood's trawler Indicator, exploring improved methods of preserving and funding the waterways, topics near and dear to us all.

If you see Indicator on the water give them a shout and check out their website and blog at: On the Waterway I A look at the ordinary and extraordinary people who work, live, and depend on the ocean.

Besides documenting their waterway experiences, their blog offers spot-on insights, photos, video interviews and some Great waterway art by Craig Tyler. It's worth the time of anyone who has an interest in East Coast boating to check it out and send some feedback to the Nicholas Institute on their project.
