Reef Mitigation

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE) Chief’s Report includes some significant NSU coral labmitigation measures to be implemented at the outset of the project. A key innovation of the project includes transplanting approximately 103,000 nursery-propagated corals over existing reef areas and new artificial reefs, along with the relocation of existing corals that may be affected within the footprint of the project.

In addition, the mitigation plan includes restoring seagrasses and mangroves in West Lake Park located just south of Port Everglades, and building environmentally friendly bulkheads throughout the channels to further reduce the impacts of the project. USACE and the National Marine FisheriesNSU students placing coral on ocean floor Services developed a mitigation plan after extensive public comment that includes traditional and innovative approaches to environmental compensatory mitigation. Read more
