Whiskey Island Back Barrier Marsh Creation
TE-50Approximately 316 acres of back barrierintertidal marsh habitat, 5,800 linear feet of tidal creeks, three 1-acre tidal ponds, and 13,000 linear feet of protective sand dune were created by semi-confined disposal and placement of dredged material.

East Timbalier Island Sediment Restoration (TE-25)
Almost three million cubic yards of sediment were utilized to establish a 200-foot wide dune and a 600-foot wide marsh along the length of the island.
This created 170 acres of intertidal marsh and is helping to protect thousands of acres of existing fringing marsh to the north.
To further stabilize the dredged sediments, 13,000 feet of sand fences and approximately 20,000 plugs of marsh grasses were added.
