The Gowanus Canal was designated a federal Superfund site in 2010, which initiated a complex, multi-year clean-up. Dredging has started this fall in the 4th Street turning basin and will continue in 2018.
This public meeting is for community members to get information about the canal clean-up, timeline and what to expect.
Congresswoman Nydia Velázquez will give a keynote and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will present an overview and timeline. An audience Q&A session will follow the presentation.
Hosted by the Gowanus Canal Community Advisory Group (CAG)
