Nearly 100 volunteers have contributed 1,910 hours of their time to the project in the past fiscal year. This year the LTP also engaged with 5 academic interns each of who worked alongside professionals and earned college credit while learning valuable technical skills as they completed unique research projects.$0$17,590

The project includes extensive public engagement and volunteer education.$0$8,700
