The Puget Sound Nearshore Ecosystem Restoration Project (PSNERP) is one of the largest habitat restoration and preservation programs ever undertaken in the United States.  We are building a plan of action by answering the questions:

• How has the shoreline of Puget Sound changed?
• Where are the most problematic changes and why?
• What can we do to protect and manage the nearshore?
• What actions should we take and where?

Answers to these questions will allow us to make informed decisions and work with landowners and communities to make progress in improving the health of Puget Sound.
