Project Description:
Replacement and upgrading of channel buoy marking systems in Silver Glen. This is for safety reasons, because on crowded attendance days in the glen, enforcement and rescue craft cannot get in and out. Also, this would help safeguard the bottom grasses, fish and reptile life by directing access and egress to the glen through the winding and deeper channel.
Measurable Outcome Anticipated:
Safer navigation of watercraft; environmental preservation of fish and wildlife.
