Lynnhaven River (Virginia) Oyster Restoration Blueprint

Description

The Lynnhaven River Oyster Restoration Tributary Plan describes how the river’s oyster restoration goal was established and how this goal will be achieved. It details the restoration site selection process, and describes the reef construction, seeding and monitoring required to bring the Lynnhaven River in line with the oyster metrics definition of a successfully restored tributary. It includes a map of restorable areas, a needs analysis for oyster seed and substrate, and a cost analysis for seed, substrate and monitoring.
