[SEMCO] SOCIAL FACTORS SURVEY - Herring River Restoration Project (Wellfleet & Truro)

[Christine Odiaga]

THE HERRING RIVER RESTORATION PROJECT NEEDS YOUR HELP



The goal of the Herring River Restoration Project in Wellfleet & Truro is
to restore a healthy, functioning salt marsh by replacing the Chequessett
Neck Road dike with an open bridge.  This will let more salt water into the
River from Wellfleet Harbor.  The amount of water exchanged will be
increased slowly over several years so that the River can be monitored.



HERRING RIVER SOCIAL FACTORS SURVEY



To select the best way to start to reintroduce salt water, various
objectives are being evaluated. These include scientific topics like water
quality and habitat changes, along with more public based topics, like
recreation and the visual appearance of the River.  Now's your chance to
shape how the restoration proceeds - share your thoughts in this online
survey.



What viewscapes do you prefer?  What recreational activities do you
currently engage in within the Herring River estuary?  How might the
restoration affect your preferred activities?  Do you have safety concerns?



TAKE THE SURVEY.

YOUR INPUT WILL HELP DETERMINE THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION FOR RESTORATION.
