1 Sediment Management in the Coastal Bays Introduction Need for ecosystem view of sediment management in Coastal Bays Island loss and restoration Navigation needs Habitat Trade offs Living Shoreline Requirements Background Barrier Island dynamics Goals Discussion Sediment Management Plan Navigation Committee Resurrection? Permit Streamlining?
2 Ocean City Feasibility Study 1998 Sand management plan to implement navigation improvements and restore fish and wildlife habitat Completed 1. Restoration of northern end of Assateague Island 2. Restore a total of 5 ha (12 ac) of salt marsh at the Isle of Wight Wildlife Management Area and 3. Restore a total of 3.4 ha (8.5 ac) of salt marsh at Ocean Pines,
3 Ocean City Feasibility Study 1998 To Be Done 4. Stabilize the eroding South Point Island to its 1997 size of approximately 0.93 ha (2.3 ac), 5. Construct a new 1.2 ha (3 ac) island in proximity to South Point to create vegetated habitat for colonial waterbirds, and 6. Create a 1.2 ha (3 ac) island near Dog Island that will be bare substrate with a shell surface for colonial waterbird nesting. The island created near Dog Island will also include three additional cells that will be available to local citizens, businesses, and government for the placement of material dredged locally. Thus, an additional 1.2 ha (3 ac) area of salt marsh will be added in the near future, and up to 8 ha (19 ac) area could eventually be created, increasing the size of this island to as much as 10 ha (25 ac).
4 Navigation and Dredging Advisory Group (NADAG) for Maryland s Coastal Bays (met initially Dec 1999, stopped meeting ~ 2003) Navigation and Dredging Planning Guide for Maryland s Coastal Bays edited by Cornelia Pasche Wikar Chair, Navigation and Dredging Advisory Group August, 2005 Recommendation: A.i.i. Support for and promotion of the beneficial use of dredged materials, including - habitat restoration and creation. - restoration of underwater grasses; - restoration of islands; - stabilization of eroding shorelines; - creation or restoration of wetlands; and - creation, restoration, or enhancement of fish or shellfish habitats

17 Sea Level Rise Potential mid-atlantic coastal landform responses to three sealevel rise scenarios. Most coastal areas are currently experiencing erosion, which is expected to increase with future sea-level rise. In addition to undergoing erosion, coastal segments denoted with a T may also cross a threshold where rapid barrier island migration or segmentation will occur.

20 Goals 1. Review and update extent of dredging needs 2. Identify/and Explore capabilities and opportunities for dredged material management 3. Engage user-groups and community in developing the Sediment Management Plan 4. Develop a Sediment Management Plan for the Coastal Bays 5. Establish a Committee to oversee, match and traffic sediments
21 Goals Con t The commission would navigate between 1) projects that generate sediments, such as navigation dredging projects; and 2) projects that require sediments such as various restoration projects (e.g. Skimmer Island other wetland restorations). Permitting should be streamlined. Specific projects such as the Skimmer Island restoration or Dog Island site would be set up, ready to accept sediments; with permitting requirements in place. That way, when a dredging job, either private or public, comes along, everything would be ready to go. The only thing needed is an assessment of the type of sediment being dredged, analyses including textural and chemistry. If the sediment is sand, then it s good for island restoration or beach replenishment; if it s fine-grained, then it s good for wetland creation or maybe island restoration.
