The National Estuaries Restoration Inventory (NERI) is now available to track progress made toward the goals of the Estuary Restoration Act of 2000. The National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration developed NERI as an on-line tool to monitor Estuary Restoration Act projects and other estuary restoration projects implemented around the country. NERI serves as a restoration information clearinghouse, providing details on techniques and monitoring results. Projects can be submitted to the inventory from Federal, State, local, and private sources provided the project goal is to restore ecosystem benefits to estuaries and associated habitats. Project managers can use the inventory to produce on-demand reports, find new partnership opportunities, and locate regional restoration efforts that may assist in future restoration planning and design.
