Public Use: Boat Ramp; Public Park
Impacts: <15% of adjacent upland areas within 500' of marsh consists of impervious surfaces. >20% of upland/marsh perimeter consists of man-made shoreline armoring. In regions where primary land use is commercial, industrial, and highway there is an unmanaged vegetative buffer zone occurring along 51-75% of the upland/marsh perimeter. Where primary land use is medium to high density residential there are regions where an unmanaged buffer zone occurs along 26-50% of the upland/marsh perimeter and other regions where the zone occurs along 0-25%. At the w12 site fill material SW of the marsh can be found from the marina. Discharge comes from a 1.5' pipe for stormwater. At the w14 site dirt road fill abuts the north side of the marsh.
