The Environmental Protection Agency published a review of more than $90 million in grants and matching funds associated with 83 Chesapeake Bay watershed projects.

The portfolio uses Small Watershed Implementation and Innovative Nutrient and Sediment Reduction grants. EPA highlighted a living shoreline at Windsor Castle Park in Smithfield, Virginia, as one example of restoration and coastal-resilience work.

The agency’s Virginia review also covered the completed Norfolk Harbor and Thimble Shoal Channel deepening project and continuing cleanup at the 50-acre Atlantic Wood Industries Superfund site along the Elizabeth River.

EPA says the Superfund work has addressed soil, groundwater and more than 30 acres of river sediment, including about 360,000 cubic yards of dredged material. The October 9 account describes the project portfolio and site work; measured water-quality outcomes will require continuing monitoring.
