Goal
Technique: Deployment of (old/new) shell as substrate In 2011, 2.0 acres of clamshell reefs were constructed at the mouth of the Lamprey River (Newmarket) using a total of 200 yd3 of surf-clam shell. The project worked with an oyster farmer to spread 25 yd3 of clamshell and remote-set seeding over a nearby 0.5 acre site around a rocky outcrop in the river. Spatial extent 8094 ha as reported.
