Dive into the complexities of coastal conservation with Paul Engelmeyer. Paul will draw upon years of experience to share a range of coastal Oregon issues, and the landscape conservation and partnership efforts required to address them.

Paul Engelmeyer has managed Portland Audubon’s Ten Mile Creek Sanctuary, home to nesting Marbled Murrelets and other imperiled species, since 1990. His work includes watershed restoration, species recovery and marine conservation efforts, and he has worked for decades to develop partnerships that have grown into a basin-wide habitat protection program on the central Oregon coast.
As Portland Audubon’s coastal Important Bird Area coordinator, Paul has also contributed to the formation of a system of marine reserves at five sites in Oregon’s Territorial Sea.
