We will continue to implement a phased approach that addresses the highest-priority vulnerabilities at the Mouth of the Maurice resulting in measurably increased resilience through the creation of up to 4,600 feet of additional hybrid living shoreline breakwaters at Northwest Reach. The breakwaters will be supplemented with the creation of semi-permeable barriers, which will be installed along the edge of the existing marsh, and will aid in the accretion of sediment. PROJECT STREET ADDRESS: Project located in the Maurice River south of the Matt's Landing dike (Northwest Reach).
