Despite degradation to the existing marsh, it continues to provide numerous natural benefits and services including resident and migratory wildlife habitat, refuge for state endangered species, and attenuation of tidal energy, shoreline stabilization, flood control, and water quality enhancement. The goal of the actions described in the EIS is to restore areas of Dyke Marsh that were previously impacted using soil elevations that will permit the establishment of sustainable plant communities while preventing damage to vegetation in the existing wetland. In the long-term, the project will provide additional wetlands to the Potomac River watershed ecosystem, preserve the aesthetic and natural values of Dyke Marsh and the George Washington Memorial Parkway, and continue to offer recreational opportunities currently available. Specific objectives of the plan are: Natural Resources (1) Restore, protect, and maintain tidal freshwater wetlands and associated ecosystems to provide habitat for fish, wildlife and other biota; ensure management actions promote native species while minimizing the intrusion of invasives. (2) Reduce or eliminate erosion of the existing marsh and provide for erosion control measures in areas of restored marsh. (3) To the extent practicable, restore and maintain hydrologic processes needed to sustain Dyke Marsh. Cultural Resources Ensure management actions continue to protect the historic resources and cultural landscape features associated with Dyke Marsh and the George Washington Memorial Parkway. Visitor Experience Include appropriate educational, interpretation, and research opportunities at Dyke Marsh as a part of any management action and make them accessible to diverse audiences. Preliminary scoping also identified broad categories of elements that will be further defined as alternatives become developed. These categories include: types of actions that may be taken (stabilizing the existing marsh, restoring wetlands lost to sand and gravel mining, restoring historic tidal flows, etc.); various ways these actions could be implemented (types of containment structures, placement of tidal channels, stabilization techniques, etc.); and where, and to what extent, these actions may be taken (full vs. partial restoration, identification of priority areas, VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:09 Apr 07, 2008 Jkt 214001 considerations related to the timing of the actions, etc.).
