DISL to lead Ala. SAV project

The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (ADCNR) selected the Dauphin Island Sea Lab (DISL) to lead a five-year project to map and restore submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) across coastal Alabama - all of Mobile and Baldwin counties, including the Mobile-Tensaw Delta. The project is one of two awarded to ADCNR by the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council. Along with mapping and restoration of Alabama's SAV, the project funds cover the enhancement and addition of educational resources such as signs, brochures, and kiosks explaining the importance of SAV and the restoration project at public boat launches, restoration areas, and public distribution.
