SUMMARY:Trail Bumps: Lessons Learned from Removing 1\,000 Bumps
DESCRIPTION:Root heaves are a common issue on paved multi-use trails that can make trails inaccessible\, unused or cause permanent and life altering injuries to users. This webinar focuses on lessons learned from removing over 1\,000 bumps from an 18-mile paved trail. The webinar includes discussion of an effective technique\, bump removal options and their trade-offs\, equipment\, cost\, and repair durability.

SUMMARY:Navigating NEPA in Trail Development
DESCRIPTION:Navigating the regulatory waters from trail plan through construction can be a daunting process\, especially on federal lands when the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) applies. This webinar is a deeper dive into NEPA as an extension of a past webinar: Approvals\, Permitting and Compliance (2023). This webinar will help answer key questions related to NEPA and trail development: What is NEPA?  How do you know if you need it?  How long does it take? What is a FONSI (Finding Of No Significant Impact)? What is a Categorical Exclusion (CE)? What is the difference between EA (Environmental Assessment)  and EIS (Environmental Impact Statement)? What does compliance look like after the NEPA process?  In addition to definitions and processes\, this webinar will provide real-life examples of trail development projects that took different routes to navigating NEPA.

SUMMARY:Trailblazing Accessibility: Ensuring Equitable Access to Natural Spaces for Those with Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will present information on how outdoor spaces can pose safety and accessibility concerns for those with various disabilities. Attendees will be introduced to solution-seeking methods of dismantling accessibility barriers that are applicable to parks\, trails\, and similar natural environments. A variety of solutions will be presented of varying price points\, complexity\, and environmental considerations\, all in order to help facilities grow in a way that is sensible\, sustainable\, and most importantly\, impactful for themselves and their surrounding community. Resources slides at the end will be optimized to be a strong stand-alone document that park leaders can reference when seeking to spearhead projects independently.
