  "projectDescription": "Two coastal salt ponds and a herring creek were restored at Great Pond in Edgartown, Massachusetts to optimize marine habitat for shellfish while providing access for migratory fish to spawning and nursery habitat. The 300 + acre Great Pond suffers from low and variable salinity from insufficient tidal exchange and reduced fish populations including alewife, white perch, winter flounder, Atlantic tomcod, bluefish, and striped bass.",
