Description
The site is exhibiting significant degradation vegetation dieback, mega pool expansion, and marsh surface subsidence because of impacted surface water hydrology, poor EBB tide drainage, and rising sea levels. These conditions impair vital wildlife habitat for trust resource species. The purpose of this project is to correct marsh surface hydrology and improve salt marsh resilience in the face of climate change and sea level rise, using the 4 tier design approach developed by northeast wetland restoration. This design approach uses innovative restoration techniques to halt marsh subsidence patterns, invigorate plant growth and elevation building processes, improve habitat for wildlife including trust resources and plan for adaptive management needs. Northeast wetland restoration will coordinate with the rachel carson national wildlife refuge land management research and demonstration biologist to deliver salt marsh restoration designs and implement marsh restoration implementation for 53 acres at biddeford pool in biddeford, maine.
