Louisiana TIG Draft Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment #6: Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitats


The Louisiana TIG Draft Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment #6: Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitats includes preferred alternatives to restore and conserve wetlands, coastal, and nearshore habitats injured by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The draft plan evaluates four restoration project alternatives within the Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitats restoration type. Of those, three are identified as preferred alternatives:

• West Grand Terre Beach Nourishment and Stabilization
• Golden Triangle Marsh Creation
• Biloxi Marsh Living Shoreline

The draft plan also evaluates a no action alternative. The total estimated cost of the preferred alternatives is approximately $209 million. One or more alternatives may be selected for implementation. Additional restoration planning for the Louisiana Restoration Area will continue.
