Restoring a Bay Resource: Riparian Forest Buffer Demonstration Sites

Description

This compilation of riparian forest buffer demonstration sites in Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia includes buffers in agricultural, rural and urban settings. These completed restoration projects are representative of other similar sites, facilitate access by those who wish to observe or study project techniques, and are being monitored, which will provide additional information to improve the practice over time. The use of demonstration sites for riparian forest buffer establishment is one way to help accomplish the objectives of communication, education and monitoring.
