Restoration bird guidance projects

Louisiana’s coastal areas are a mosaic of habitats that support regionally, nationally and in some cases globally important populations of migratory and resident bird species such as brown pelicans, tricolored herons, clapper rails and Wilson’s plover. 

To inform the planning, design and implementation of Deepwater Horizon restoration and related projects that support birds, the Louisiana Trustees have released the Guidance for Coastal Ecosystem Restoration and Monitoring to Create or Improve Bird-Nesting Habitat document

This guidance is intended to provide specific and detailed information on designing ecosystem restoration projects that support nesting birds within coastal marsh, barrier island, and ridge habitats. Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group's Latest Gulf Spill Restoration news update >>
