Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Natural Resources Damage Assessment Texas Trustee Implementation Group Draft Restoration Plan/Environmental Assessment #3: Restoration of Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitats

The Texas TIG proposes to allocate $40 million of Texas TIG Wetland, Coastal, and Nearshore Habitat Restoration Type funds in this RP/EA #3 to restore wetland habitat along the Texas coast. This funding would be divided among the selected projects to provide the incremental cost to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or pay for other viable sources to beneficially use sediments dredged to construct preferred restoration alternatives, as well as for Trustee implementation costs, planting, and monitoring.
