Northeast




Welcome to the Northeast Chapter of the River Management Society! 
Our goal is to further the RMS mission by providing a network for members to expand their knowledge of river management through participation and involvement in RMS-Northeast Chapter activities.

Our members hail from the Mid-Atlantic states of Maryland, DC, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey and New York up through the New England states: Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine. We represent a variety of professionals in the private and public sectors, from federal, state and local agencies to edicational non-profits and consultants.

Our fascinating range of expertise includes geomorphologic design, economic modeling, hydropower relicensing, and whitewater course development. In 2011, RMS-NE partnered with the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, hosting webinars in support of their effort to educate watertrail users about aquatic invasive species.

Chapter Bylaws explain how the RMS-Northeast Chapter guides our operation. Chapter accomplishments are many and we think you'll be interested in attending chapter activities such as those we produced in 2009 -2011.


The most recent RMS newsletter with a Northeast Chapter focus is Fall 2011, Volume 24, No. 3.  You can view the most recent RMS newsletter by clicking here. All journal back issues are archived online, available with other Society publications on the members-only side of the website.
