Possum Point Shoreline Restoration: Possum Point is located at the northeast end of Greenbury Point, bordered by Mill Creek on the west and the Chesapeake Bay on the east and is primarily used for fishing. Possum Point's shoreline has a failing bulkhead and is experiencing erosion due to wave energy and holes in the bulkhead. There are many shoreline reaches on Greenbury Point experiencing erosion. A study was conducted to identify shoreline erosion conditions and existing conditions of the habitat along Possum Point and to determine which shoreline restoration methods are feasible. In accordance with the Clean Water Act and E.O. 13508, NSA Annapolis must take action to repair and restore the eroding shoreline at Possum Point. This Cooperative Agreement will meet those requirements by executing shoreline restoration measures on the reaches of Possum Point. The Cooperator shall implement the government approved design (Appendix B) on the shoreline reaches at Possum Point. The Cooperator shall comply with all forthcoming permits and authorizations associated with the approved design during the implementation of the design.
