BCDC, in partnership with state and federal agencies, is developing a regional sediment management plan that builds on the successful LTMS program and seeks to incorporate flood protection, habitat restoration, sand mining and shoreline erosion in the overall management of sediments in the Bay.

Sediment for Wetland Adaptation Project
BCDC is working to increase sediment and soil beneficial reuse for habitat adaptation through a grant to address stakeholder engagement, a potential Bay Plan amendment, and development of a financing strategy. See Sediment for Wetland Adaptation Project for more information.
