DESCRIPTION
Pierce Conservation District proposes to implement a shoreline armor removal and restoration project on residential property on Filucy Bay in Pierce County. This project would remove up to 50 linear feet of creosote-treated wood armor and reestablish riparian vegetation to support natural coastal processes and benefit nearshore habitat. The subject property has 50 feet of creosote-treated wood bulkhead that is currently failing and releasing creosote logs into the Puget Sound during storms. Following removal, the bank will be re-sloped and planted with native shoreline plant species. A significant portion of the current lawn area will be converted to a diverse native plant buffer zone. A low-impact beach access path will be incorporated into the slope, rather than replacing the over-water stairs structure. Armor on adjacent parcels will require some return walls to be installed at the boundaries of the parcel to protect from end effects. The landowner is committed and enthusiastic about returning the shoreline to a natural state.
