Description:SHORELINE EXEMPTION - for Olympia oyster habitat restoration work. The purpose of the project is to expand the Discovery Bay Olympia oyster population by increasing amount of suitable substrate near the current population. Filter-feeding bi-values such as Olympia oysters feed on phytoplankton by filtering large volumes of water thereby improving water quality, removing pollutants and nutrients from the water column, and maintaining the water clarity necessary for eelgrass and kelp growth. Bags of clean cultch (mass of stones, broken shells, and grit of which an oyster bed is formed) will be delivered to a nearby upland staging are off Highway 101 and moved to the beach by wheelbarrow along an existing trail. Bags will be hand carried to the waterline during a low tide to target areas marked with wire flags, and be cut open and shell distributed by hand. This project requires State SEPA review, a Hydraulic Project Approval from the Department of Fish & Wildlife, and a Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the Department of Ecology.
