About the Marist Environmental History Project

The Marist Environmental History Project (MEHP) is dedicated to identifying historically significant materials concerning the Scenic Hudson Decision, promoting access to these materials for use by researchers, and most importantly preserving these materials.

In October of 2005 the Marist College Archives and Special Collections received the Debra E. Bernhardt Annual Archives Award for developing the MEHP. This project is a continuation of the work that Marist has been concerned with for the past five years. During this time the Marist College Archives and Special Collections has been awarded several grants to preserve and make accessible the many significant environmental collections held by the College. These important collections, combined with the efforts of Marist College to process and maintain them, have brought an increased awareness to issues that threaten our environment.

This World Wide Web site represents the next stage in the MEHP. We are now actively identifying all organizations and individuals that hold significant materials concerning the Scenic Hudson Decision, and we will continue to add to our findings to this site. If you are aware of any additional sources concerning the Scenic Hudson Decision that you think should be made available on the Web please contact us.
