CBF Pine Cone Harbour Living Shoreline Project
Join the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) for the installation of a 1,000-linear-foot living shoreline oyster sill at Pine Cone Harbour Condominiums along the Hampton River. This part of the project will involve placing 4,692 oyster castles, 720 bushels of recycled oyster shells, 650 Natrx Basalt Shell Bags, and 22 coconut fiber coir logs, each measuring 12 feet by 16 inches.
The Pine Cone Harbour Living Shoreline project represents the first collaboration between the CBF's Hampton Roads Oyster Team and the Urban Restoration Team. Both teams are implementing projects directly offshore from one another. This partnership ensures that all habitats along the tidal slope, from subtidal areas to the riparian buffer, are considered as an integrated whole. By addressing these ecosystems comprehensively and viewing each section as part of a larger mosaic, the project aims to achieve effective implementation and lasting improvements in water quality.
A special thanks to the Blocker Foundation for supporting this work!
