DESCRIPTION

Restore an exceptional feeder bluff through bulkhead removal, wood placement and revegetation, along the mainland marine shoreline. The project is located just north of Marine View Park in Normandy Park. While the upland is not developed, there is a bulkhead along 80% of the shoreline of the bluff. Analysis and preliminary design work is currently being funded. To the extent possible, the bulkhead would be removed to allow for natural sediment beach feeding processes to occur.

Outreach and education with local landowners resulting in volunteers and conservation crews removing 44,000 square feet of invasive species from the site working primarily along the creek. Over 1500 native plants were installed in the areas where invasive ivy had been removed.

This project has received two Community Salmon Fund grants - in 2006 and 2008. One is jointly funded by the Salmon Recovery Funding Board (project described above), and the other is jointly funded by the King Conservation District which is meant for the purchase of a conservation easement of 3.03 acres of habitat.

Additional parcels are proposed for acquisition from willing property owners.
