The CBCC NOAA-ARRA Projects are done! Have you seen the signs around Coral Bay? There are 15 signs showcasing the work areas with descriptive explanatory information on the white posters. Take a tour, read the signs and see the stormwater management devices that were installed: From the bioretention pond on King's Hill road to the new paving and swales out at Johns Folly.... all 18 project areas delivered 47 new "Best Management Practices" (BMPs) for handling stormwater runoff to Coral Bay.
The signs willl remain in place until June - so be sure you get a chance to see them all. The posters can also be viewed at http://www.coralbaycommunitycouncil.org/Virc-and-D.htm . Thanks to everyone in the community who helped make these projects happen! A map of the project areas is below.
