Dixon Bay Oil Spill - General Images

Restoration will include construction of a crevasse in the "Birdfoot" Delta to create 25-50 acres of emergent estuarine wetlands. The newly created wetlands will allow sediment-laden water to flow out and allow sediments to drop out of suspension and create mudflats. Scirpus spp. and Sagittaria spp. are the predominant species present.
