Dredged Material Research. Notes, News, Reviews, Etc., Volume D-76-8.

Abstract

The major section in this note describes work unit 4E02, designed to test the efficacy of establishing seagrass meadows on dredged material placed in subtidal situations. As a part of 4E02, shoal grass was transplanted from one location in St. Joseph Bay, Florida (above), to a barren dredged material substrate nearby. The article describes newly initiated Task 4E: Aquatic Habitat Development. Also included is a brief discussion of interim guidelines published for implementation of section 404(b)(1) of Public Law 92-500 (Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972).
