The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration announced $139 million in new grants to support nature-based solutions for coastal resilience in 31 states, according to the borough. The project will result in 750 feet of vegetated shoreline that will include native and pollinator plants to stabilize the area and reduce sunny-day flooding in the neighborhood, borough officials said Monday in a news release. The living shoreline will enhance other resiliency and ecological sustainability efforts at the marina, all part of a major rehabilitation project that began earlier this month, the borough said. The project also includes a barrier to protect nesting terrapins and a flood-resistant curb, as well as a new boat ramp and dockmaster building, a new handicapped-accessible kayak launch, a new bulkhead, new sidewalks, a parking area and new piers.
