In the first episode of our new season, we learn more about how the Department of Defense and military installations along our coast are helping to implement coastal resilience strategies and improve our natural resources in Georgia!

In this episode, hear from Michelle Covi, the Coastal Resilience DOD Liaison with the UGA Marine Extension and GA Sea Grant. Michelle joined in September 2021 and works regionally in the Southeast to connect Sea Grant programs with military community coastal resilience projects through a partnership with SERPPAS (Southeast Regional Partnership for Planning and Sustainability) and the Department of Defense REPI (Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration) program.
