Moses Lake Shoreline Protection Phase 3 and Dollar Bay Marsh Restoration

Summary

Follow-up phased shoreline protection and marsh restoration project to the Moses Lake Shoreline Protection Phase 2 project. The project scope involves data collection, permitting and final engineering design. If constructed in a future funding biennium, the project would protect up to 4,000 linear feet of shoreline and adjacent habitat along the north shoreline of Moses Lake and restore an estimated 30 acres of degraded wetland habitat in Dollar Bay. The local project partner, Galveston Bay Foundation, is taking the project lead and is responsible for overall execution of the project.
