Harlem River Designing the Edge Project Sample Clauses

Harlem River Designing the Edge Project. Description: Reconfigure existing vertical shoreline structures along the Harlem River to create habitat complexity, and provide refugia for migratory and resident fish species in order to compensate for habitat disturbance associated with cable construction and operation. Oyster Bed Development and Restoration Description: Oysters are “ecosystem engineers,” creating a complex environment that supports a diversity of aquatic organisms. Oysters help to moderate the concentration of phytoplankton in the water, thereby benefitting other marine life by reducing the competition for dissolved oxygen. Once ubiquitous in the Xxxxxx-Raritan Estuary and New York Harbor, decades of overfishing, disease and pollution almost eliminated the oysters that once blanketed those areas. Recent water quality improvements have enabled efforts to restore this vital element of the Estuary. Restoration of oyster beds in New York waters, including areas of the Xxxxxx River, is one of the key targets in the Army Corps of Engineers’ Comprehensive Restoration Plan for the Xxxxxx-Raritan Estuary. Pilot oyster reefs were constructed as part of the Oyster Restoration Research Project (“ORRP”), a partnership of more than 30 entities. Ongoing two-year studies of the pilot reefs conducted by the ORRP have shown positive results that warrant further investigation consistent with the Corps of Engineers’ Comprehensive Restoration Plan. The initial two-year studies of pilot oyster reefs are expected to be completed in the spring of 2012. An infusion of funds from the Trust would allow the City to conduct additional studies of existing pilot oyster reefs consistent with the Corps of Engineers’ Comprehensive Restoration Plan, including (i) a comprehensive evaluation of the ecosystem services and water quality benefits that the oyster reefs provide, and (ii) an examination of oyster larval development, disease resistance, and obstacles to oyster reproduction. Also, ongoing studies of the pilot oyster reefs have demonstrated that larval oysters “planted” at the reefs may be lost to hydraulic transport. With the Trust funding, new methods to reduce such losses would be studied within the existing footprint of the Soundview Park pilot reef in the Upper East River in the Bronx. If approved as presently proposed, the HVDC Transmission Facility will be installed in the bed of the East River as the cables are laid between the Xxxxxx River and the East River. Timing: Data collected from the two-year pilot...
