Overview
Grant Description
Purpose: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is providing $3,541,936 in federal funding to the Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve through the FY2023 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law National Estuarine Research Reserve Habitat Restoration and Conservation Competition.
This funding will increase climate resilience of coastal communities within coastal counties through habitat restoration planning, engineering and design projects, habitat restoration implementation projects, and land conservation projects.
Specifically, Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve will use these funds to remove a degraded bulkhead, restore an emergent marsh shoreline, and promote shoreline stewardship at the East Gateway Tract within the Weeks Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve.
The project will involve planning, engineering, design, construction, and monitoring activities, and will also serve as a demonstration site for education, outreach, professional training, and student-based coastal resilience workforce development.
