2 National Estuary Programs Each of the 28 NEP logos represents broad local partnerships which include citizens, scientists, businesses, industry and government at all levels. We implement local solutions to complex water quality, habitat and living resource problems.
3 Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan SG-Q: Build capacity for communities and their local leadership to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change through joint efforts.
4 Why Charlotte Harbor NEP? Host SWFRPC 2 decades of storm surge modeling & hurricane planning yr & yr droughts Category 4 landfalling storm; Hurricane Charley. Climate-aware population.

38 Recommended Mangrove Restoration Projects in Estero Bay Watershed Bayside Estates Canal Mangroves Big Hickory Island Mangrove Heart Attack Island Park Mitigation Mangrove South Ostego Bay Preserve Port Carlos Cove Break the berm along the canal to allow flow. Culvert or bridge CR 865. Create tidal channel using 1950s aerals for guidance. Investigate for herbicide application overwash from Melaleuca treatment. Culvert canal berm to restore hydrologic flows. Channel to the East is restricted and could be reopened.
39 Recommended Mangrove Restoration Projects in San Carlos Bay Watershed Bunche Beach South Bunche Beach West Bunche Beach East Punta Rassa Mangrove Heart Attack Bunche Beach North Punta Rassa Creek Buttonwood Key Shell Point Southwest Shell Point West St. Jude Trail Pine Island Eagle Preserve Jewfish Creek Shell Point East Culvert John Morris Road, connecting tidal creek to Bunche Beach East. Bridge Summerlin Road at creek west of Connie Mack Island. Culvert John Morris Road, connecting tidal creek to Bunche Beach South. Culvert Summerlin to improve flows. Boxed in mangrove. John Morris Road with its canal short circuited hydrologic flows. Culverts may not be enough. Review overland flows. Bridge Summerlin over tidal creek. Culverts on causeway. Use Mosquito ditches to increase flow. Culvert Shell Point Road. Culvert underneath trail. Restore mosquito control ditches so that the mangroves are no longer boxed in. Restore mosquito control ditches and spool to allow overland flow into mangroves. This is an opportunity to establish a reference site for mangrove health on Pine Island. Excessive S-79 Discharges may have physical and turbidity damage to tidal creek. Flow control issue. Culvert Shell Point Road.
