Official description
Solicitation #IFB B-25-027. Issued by Department Public Works. Cecil County Department of Public Works is partnering with the Maryland Park Service to construct a living shoreline demonstration project at Bohemia River State Park. The park is a valuable community asset and has been experiencing erosion of its shoreline due to boat wake and storm surge, becoming increasingly vulnerable to the future impacts of sea level rise. The project will install approximately 1,000 linear feet of native trees, shrubs, grasses, and marsh vegetation with five vegetated rock sills and three log sill structures in order to mitigate current erosion, enhance wildlife and aquatic habitat, improve water quality, and provide for new educational opportunities in concert with improved public access to the water and a future observation platform.
