Project Description
The purpose of this project is to complete the planning, modeling/flow regime analysis, engineering, design, and permitting required to restore the hydrology of 250 acres of tidal freshwater and brackish marsh located east of County Road 1 in Baldwin County, Alabama, known as the Meadows Tract. Completion of these activities will provide the NOAA Restoration Center with a full understanding of the construction alternatives at this site, complete with environmental impact and benefits metrics. This information will provide the NOAA Restoration Center with the necessary information to seek Category 2 funds for implementation.
