Description:
This Draft Restoration Plan and Environmental Assessment #3 focuses on the beneficial use of dredged material to restore and conserve wetlands, coastal, and nearshore habitats. The Draft Plan includes a description and evaluation of eight restoration projects, also called restoration alternatives, that compensate for the Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitats Restoration Type injured by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Seven alternatives are preferred and one of the alternatives is not preferred by the Texas TIG at this time. Pursuant to NEPA, a No Action alternative is also evaluated.
The total estimated cost to implement the seven preferred alternatives is $40 million.
