Planning for Large Scale Atlantic White-Cedar Restoration, The Eel River Case Study

Marty Melchior and Keith Underwood, Inter-Fluve, Inc.

Presented by Marty Melchior

The Eel River restoration project (Plymouth, MA) represents one of the largest Atlantic white-cedar (AWC) restoration projects attempted. The project, set to begin construction in June 2009, involves the conversion of 40 acres of cranberry bog to cedar swamp, dam removal and the construction of over a mile of stream. This presentation will review the planning and decision making process that led to AWC restoration inclusion, and will detail the methods used for propagation, growth and the timely delivery of healthy trees.
