This project addressed continued GIWW bank erosion and inundation of higher salinity water to help maintain the fresh and intermediate conditions in the wetlands of the refuge. Approximately 10,000 acres of fresh to intermediate marsh was protected.
This project protected 45,000 acres of wetlands by stabilizing and reconstructing over one mile of shoreline along a reach of the GIWW at the McFaddin NWR in Jefferson County.
This project added 7,550 linear feet to previously constructed breakwaters that protect Dana Cove, Oak Bayou, and Butterowe Bayou on the bay side of Galveston Island.
This project is comprised of completing final engineering and design and construction of up to 3,500 feet of nearshore breakwaters along eroding Dollar Bay shoreline.
The project created two marsh cells adjacent to highly eroding shorelines in Dickinson Bayou.
This project used material dredged during routine maintenance dredging operations from the Sabine Pass channel section of the Sabine Neches Waterway and place it on the beach of Texas Point NWR to reduce the erosion rate, and to perhaps build some marsh.
This shoreline protection project constructed a previously designed and permitted living shoreline project along approximately 2,000 feet of shoreline at the Arturo Galvan Coastal Park adjacent to the Lower Laguna Madre within the City of Port Isabel.
This project constructed a geotextile tube shoreline protection structure for an established bird-nesting island in Nueces Bay. An alternatives analysis, engineering design, permitting, and construction were completed.
This project included engineering and design, alternatives analysis and permitting for a structure designed to protect the east side of Causeway Island.
This project further prevented shoreline erosion and restored deteriorated shorelines by slowing down the erosion by planting cordgrass.
