  "projectDescription": "Significant marsh loss in the Cameron Meadows area is attributed to rapid fluid and gas extraction beginning in 1931, as well as Hurricanes Rita, Gustav and Ike. During the hurricanes of 2005 and 2008, the physical removal of the marsh coupled with low rainfall has resulted in the conversion of intermediate to brackish marsh to approximately 7,000 acres of open water. In addition to these direct losses, significant marsh loss has resulted from saltwater intrusion and hydrologic changes associated with storm damage. The goal of this project is to restore approximately 319 acres of coastal marsh habitat. The project also seeks to reverse the conversion of wetlands to shallow open water in the project area through re-establishment of hydrologic connectivity. Sediments will be hydraulically dredged from the Gulf and pumped via pipeline to create approximately 308 acres of marsh. Approximately 8 acres of terraces will be constructed to reduce fetch and the erosive potential of wind-generated wave energy.",
