    Gypsum and water management interactions for revegetation and productivity improvement of brackish marsh in Louisiana. Comm. Soil Sci. and Plant Anal. The Alaska District, United States (U.S.) Army Corps of Engineers (Corps), in accordance with regulations pursuant to Section of the Clean Water Act (CWA) [Public Law , 33 U.S.C. et. seq.]has issued General Permit (GP) POA- , (formerly known as GP POAM1), authorizing placement of dredged and/or fill material.

    And because the Corps is required to maintain the navigability of all federal waterways, the EWN team has a ready supply of dredged material to work with. One example of this strategy can be seen in Texas’ Galveston Bay, where the Corps partnered with Houston Audubon to create the 6-acre Evia Island, which today is populated with herons.   Dredged material in Pool 6 was managed similarly from – , according to the recommendations made in the GREAT I study which were incorporated in the CMMP. All dredged material in Pool 6 was placed at one of three sites: Homer West (~50, cubic yard capacity), Winona Commercial Harbor.

Louisiana is facing a coastal land loss crisis that has claimed 1, square miles of land since the ’s. Given the importance of so many of south Louisiana’s assets – waterways, natural resources, unique culture and wetlands – this land loss crisis is of national significance.

Although considerable progress has been made in quantifying and valuing some of the key ecosystem goods and services provided by these habitats, fundamental challenges remain.

The biggest challenge is inadequate knowledge to link changes in ecosystem structure and function to the production of valuable.

Deprived of the river’s land-making capabilities, southern Louisiana has lost 2, square miles of land and 20 percent of its wetlands since the s. Officials are now planning to build sediment diversion projects that mimic the natural flood cycle so that sediment and freshwater can rebuild and sustain Louisiana’s coastal wetlands.

As a result, sea and wading bird colonies relocated to these artificial islands in large numbers. More than 1 million water birds nest on the dredged material islands annually.The Corps is responsible for the environmental stewardship of water resource development projects located in 43 states and occupying million surface acres, navigation locks, harbors, 75 hydropower projects, miles of inland and coastal waterways.
