Before: October 2003
Post build: June 2006
After: Spring 2012
Wrack line post Hurricane Sandy
Collection of Field Data• Hardened shoreline is identified
using NOAA Environmental Sensitivity Index from the Tappan Zee Bridge to Troy.
• The field assessment targets hardened shoreline associated with developed industrial areas and riverfront communities.
• Information is collected utilizing a LEICA GPS data logger.
The Hudson River Sustainable Shorelines Project (HRSSP) develops science-based recommendations for shore zone management that preserve or enhance ecologicalvalue. HRSSP Demonstration Site Network showcases innovative shoreline designs and best management practices to enhance habitat value and shoreline resiliencyfor the challenges of climate change and sea level rise. Additional candidate shore zones for the Demonstration Site Network are now being identified through thePriority Shoreline Inventory to show the efficacy of sustainable shoreline designs.

Background Information• The Sustainable Shoreline Demonstration Site
Network highlights innovative shoreline stabilization techniques.
• Objectives of Demonstration Sites:• Maintain and enhance important
ecological services• Provide resilience to physical forces• Be cost-competitive with traditional
approaches• Accommodate human use
• There are currently 7 sites, shown in the map in the center.
• Sites are publicly accessible and case studies with design details are available on our website.
