Come learn about ReClam the Bay&rsquo\;s e fforts to work with communities to address flooding and land erosion conce rns on the banks of the Barnegat Bay. ReClam the Bay\, a 501c3 non-profit\ , all-volunteer organization\, was created under the auspices of the Barne gat Bay Shellfish Restoration Program and as part of the Barnegat Bay Part nership\, and has worked in tandem with several communities to implement g rants developed for building living shorelines. \;

\n

Living shor elines are built using cured shell\, live shellfish\, and native plants an d act as a shorebreak to disperse wave energy\, encourage sand and soil ac retion instead of erosion\, and also provide habitat for young fish\, turt les\, and crabs. The ReClam the Bay speaker will provide examples of the s horeline building process to show and explain the benefits of more natural options for shore resiliency and restoration.
