Reports

'l'his report describes two studies by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) on oyster bottoms adjacent to the recently constructed and the original James River bridges. The first study was conducted from July to October, 1972, prior to construction of the new bridge. The second was carried out in April, 1976, after the new bridge was finished, but prior to the removal of the southern end of the original bridge.

There were several purposes to the studies: 1) To determine if construction activity had a measurable impact on the adjacent leased bottom; 2) To quantify the magnitude of stocks …

Shoreline Situation Report Cities Of Chesapeake, Norfolk, And Portsmouth, Dennis W. Owen, Lynne M. Rogers, Margaret H. Peoples, Robert J. Byrne, Carl H. Hobbs Iii

Reports

It i s the objective of this report to supply an assessment, and at least a partial integration, of those important shoreland parameters and characteristics which will aid the planners and the managers of the shorelands in making the best decisions for the utilization of this limited and very valuable resource. The report gives particular attention to the problem of shore erosion and to recommendations concerning the alleviation of the impact of this problem. In addition, we have tried to include in our assessment a discussion of those factors which might significantly limit development of the shoreline and, in some …

Water Quality In The Small Coastal Basins, Bruce J. Neilson

Reports

The Small Coastal Basins portion of the Hampton Raods 208 study area includes the Back and Poquoson Rivers on the Virginia Peninsula and Little Creek Harbor and the Lynnhaven Bay system on the southern shore of Chesapeake Bay, as shown in Figure 1.

All four basins lie entirely within the geological Coastal Plain Province, the low lying area between the Fall Line and the Atlantic Ocean. The soft sediments typical of this province erode easily, so …
