Community-based and larger-scale oyster restoration in ACE Basin NERR Phase II by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
This project will create and protect intertidal oyster reefs and saltmarsh, essential fish habitat, within the Ashepoo-Combahee-Edisto (ACE) Basin National Estuarine Research Reserve in South Carolina. Organization: South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.
Creating Oyster Niche Structures through Restoration Using Crab Traps by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
Abandoned crab traps are a prevalent form of marine debris on South Carolina and other states’ scenic coastal shorelines, detracting from their natural beauty and posing an ecological threat. This project, lead by a team of researchers with the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), led by Associate Marine Scientist, Dr. Peter Kingsley-Smith, is a progressive way to use abandoned and unwanted crab traps to create new and thriving oyster reef habitat with funding from the SARP/NOAA Community-based Restoration Program (CRP), SCDNR.
Develop Artificial Estuarine Habitats in SC to Increase Abundance of Recreationally-Important Fish by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
This project will develop artificial estuarine habitats to increase abundance of recreationally important fish within South Carolina.
Oyster Habitat Restoration and Capacity Building for Future Oyster Restoration in SC by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM

Community-based Oyster Reef and Saltmarsh Restoration in the Charleston Harbor Watershed and Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
This project will create intertidal oyster reefs and Spartina saltmarsh (.78 acres of intertidal oyster reef and 0.1 acre of adjacent saltmarsh) in the Charleston Harbor Watershed and Cape Romain Wildlife Refuge. Organization: South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.

Stream Restoration & Protection on Agricultural Lands in the Upper Duck River Watershed by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
The Allen family’s dairy, Dairy Made Farm in western Marshall County, is a top priority site for conservation work on the upper Duck River. The farm has been an Allen family operation for generations and is now operated by Cannon and John Daniel Allen. It is up-stream and adjacent to a reach of the Duck from Lillards Mill to Venable Spring, one of the most biologically diverse reaches of the entire river system. The opportunity to work with the landowners on this important site arose late in 2007 and it promises to be an exciting and beneficial project for all involved.
Restoration of Critical Habitat for LIsted Mussels and Fish, Big South Fork NRRA, TN/KY by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
The Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area is a focus for major conservation efforts due to the outstanding aquatic features found in the Big South Fork of the Cumberland River. The park is also a favorite location for equestrian riders, cyclists, and hikers. Managing a park for such multiple uses, while conserving biodiversity, is wrought with challenges.
Restoration of aquatic/riparian habitats of the Edwards Plateau at the South Llano River State Park by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
This project will restore aquatic/riparian habitats of the Edwards Plateau at the South Llano River State Park in Texas.
Watershed-Based Approach to Channel Stabilization and Sediment Control in Pleasant Run Creek by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
Excessive sediment from channelized tributaries of the Hatchie River (TN) are degrading downstream aquatic habitat. Pleasant Run Creek is a channelized tributary to the Hatchie River, exhibiting significant soil erosion and channel incision problems. This project seeks to implement channel stabilization measures on private lands that will improve riparian habitat on Pleasant Run Creek and reduce sediment loading to the Hatchie River.
Altamaha River Flathead Project: More than One Way to Skin a Cat: Controlling the spread of invasive flathead catfish through research, outreach and education by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
The Altamaha River Watershed Conservation Action Plan cites invasive species as one of the six highest ranked threats. One of the invasive species thriving in portions of the watershed is the flathead catfish, which cause environmental harm, threaten native species, and can change the recreational value of an area for anglers. User groups (general public, children, anglers, commercial fishermen) as well as watershed managers must work together to control a population by size or area of infestation.
Bennet Bayou Coastal Marsh Restoration by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
Bennett Bayou’s is a gateway to the Pascagoula River marshes. The Pascagoula River is the largest unimpeded river system in the continental U.S. It supports habitats for about 22 threatened and endangered species, and serves as a critical refueling and rest stop for birds during intercontinental migrations. Beneficiaries of restoration include red drum, brown and white shrimp, Gulf sturgeon, speckled trout and Atlantic croaker.
Community-Based and Larger-Scale Oyster Restoration in ACE Basin NERR, South Carolina by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
This project will build intertidal shorelines with oyster reefs.
Erosion control in Doe/Mill/Wildcat Branch Watershed, Winston County, Alabama, to benefit Rush Darter by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
This project will reduce the threat to one of the last surviving populations of rush darter (Etheostoma phytophylum)in the Doe/Mill/Wildcat Branch Watershed in Winston County, Alabama to prevent the need for listing under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).
Gravel Augmentation at Spawning Habitats in the Oconee and Ogeechee Rivers of Georgia by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
The robust redhorse (Moxostoma robustum), a species that had been lost to science for about 150 years, was discovered on the Oconee River in 1991. Wild populations subsequently found in the Savannah River (Georgia/South Carolina) and Pee Dee River (North Carolina) have been augmented by stocking in other areas of Georgia and South Carolina. The species is very particular about the water quality and depth as well as the gravel quality of its spawning sites. To encourage propagation of this native species, the Robust Redhorse Conservation Committee coordinates activities in several southeastern states. The gravel augmentation is expected to benefit invertebrates, including mussels, as well as anadromous species such as striped bass, American shad, and Atlantic sturgeon.
Habitat Data Collection to aid Buck Creek Watershed Restoration by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
Restoration of native vegetation, streams, riparian zones and wetlands along Buck Creek and its tributaries is an ongoing project that needs physical habitat data specific to target species of fishes and mussels. The restoration effort is addressing Kentucky’s number one source of impairment — sedimentation and siltation. The overall goal is to tailor existing stream restoration efforts to benefit over 11 species of fish and mussels including sport fish, federally listed endangered species, and sensitive species in Buck Creek.
Improved Recreational Fishing Through Community-based Oyster Reef Habitat Restoration, North Shore Eagle Point Oyster Restoration - Phase I and II by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
Oyster beds serve unique roles in estuaries, yet they are highly susceptible to over-harvesting, diseases and pollution. In addition to having both recreational and commercial value, oyster beds provide ecological benefits such as filtration and habitat for numerous species of invertebrates, fish, and plants.
Jockey's Ridge State Park Community-based Living Shoreline Restoration Phase I and II by Admin, last updated: Jul 10, 2020 02:44 PM
Jockey’s Ridge State Park is the location of the largest sand dune system on the east coast. It is part of the Roanoke River Watershed, which flows from Virginia through North Carolina to the sea. Its estuarine shoreline had never been stabilized prior to making the area into a state park. However, the estuarine shoreline had been damaged by vehicle and foot traffic, and acres of salt marsh had disappeared.
