The mission of the Conservation Commission and the Conservation Agent is to educate the public on wetlands protection and regulations, and to guide citizens through permitting processes related to the Massachusetts Wetland Protection Act  (310 CMR Section 10.00) and any other state and local applicable regulatory and protection standards.

 

We seek to promote protection and conservation of both inland and coastal wetland resources, as well as to promote and enforce compliance with local, state, and federal wetland resource regulations. We are proud to serve the Town of Newbury and help to educate the public on all conservation-related matters.
