GA Living Shoreline Martha Randolph Stevens Park

This project site is located at Martha Randolph Stevens Park, a 12-acre recreation site in Liberty County, Georgia. The shoreline was experiencing active erosion. The marshland consisted of 243 linear feet of shoreline with a fishing pier. The bank of the shoreline was graded back to a 3:1 slope. The slope was protected with Flexamat 10NW. The choice of using Flexamat and the rock toe were to provide oyster recruitment. Spartina Alterniflora was replanted throughout the Flexamat above the tidal zone of the shoreline. The total impact to the coastal marshland was 5,350 SF.
