Site habitat restoration

A goal of the T-117 removal action is to cleanup the site in a manner that leaves it suitable for a range of final site uses within the Port owned portions of the T-117 Early Action Area (includes both upland and aquatic). An evaluation of post-cleanup, final site use options is currently underway by the Port and may be ready for implementation immediately following the completion of the removal action, or at a later date after the removal action has been completed. The Port is evaluating habitat site restoration in coordination with the stakeholder agencies known as the Natural Resource Damage (NRD) Trustees. The following links provide additional details on T-117 habitat restoration developments:
