Restore a 114 acre tidal wetland complex within Humboldt Bay to be self-sustaining over the long term in the face of projected sea level rise. Project will provide critical habitat for threatened salmonids and other listed species, act as a living shoreline to protect Highway 101 and an electrical power line from sea level rise and tidal flooding, and expand passive recreational opportunities and coastal access for the public.
