Blue Coast conducted a feasibility study to develop a range of conceptual alternatives for shoreline armor removal, LID stormwater treatment, and shading reduction at the marina to provide maximum potential ecological benefit and effectiveness while maintaining important recreational uses at the marina. Blue Coast performed a habitat assessment through a site visit and analyzing existing information. Blue Coast developed a range of conceptual restoration alternatives and evaluated the benefits and limitations of each alternative for permitting, constructability, construction cost, and funding options; and performed outreach through presentations and meetings with project proponents including city, county, state, and federal agencies, tribes, and marina users and key stakeholders.

Blue Coast was contracted by the Northwest Straits Foundation and Island County to evaluate to potential for restoration at two sites owned by Washington State Parks. The initial phase involved characterizing both sites for the current status of ecological and physical processes using existing and collected data and presentation of this information in ArcGIS. Existing infrastructure and utilities were also evaluated. The characterization of the sites led to a clear initial choice for restoration based on constraints at one site due to current site use and infrastructure. Both sites current conditions and restoration potential were documented in a final report. The selected site, Hoypus Point, was moved forward and is planned for design and construction in 2021.
