Living Shorelines

Summary

Galveston Bay Foundation will begin by scoping the project site to determine that an alternative shoreline protection method is appropriate based on the site conditions.  A USFWS Wildlife Extension and Project Protection Agreement would be developed and signed by the landowner, protecting the created marsh and wavebreak for the term of the agreement.
