Grant 84523 (Jefferson Parish Department of Environmental Affairs)

Restore 150 acres of former brackish marsh habitat by constructing 12,000 linear-feet of marsh terraces from on-site material stabilized with native marsh vegetation in the Upper Barataria Basin. Project will reduce wave fetch on the southeast side of the Barataria Marsh Creation Project and expand Jefferson Parish's multiple lines of defense to increase its overall resilience and protection from coastal storms.
