In our final podcast, learn about the GulfCorps conservation program. It’s helping local residents get training and experience restoring habitats harmed by the Deepwater Horizon spill that will help them prepare for future employment.
The restoration of McCoys Creek with NOAA funds is creating fish habitat and recreational space for community members. It also takes 150 homes out of the flood zone.
NOAA and partners have made significant progress addressing the impacts of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. From marsh creation to better fishing practices, our work is restoring the Gulf’s habitats and marine resources.
A NOAA-funded project on the Upper Coonamessett River in Falmouth, Massachusetts, will remove fish passage barriers and restore wetlands on a former cranberry bog. This work complements earlier NOAA-funded work on the lower part of the river.
