The USEPA's Office of Research and Development, working jointly with the Office of Water, has developed an Internet-accessible inventory of ecological restoration projects within the Mid-Atlantic Integrated Assessment Region. The inventory encompasses individual restoration projects conducted in both aquatic and terrestrial environments by federal, state, and local government entities and non-government organizations. Each project listing includes such information as a description of the restoration site, the problem being addressed, goals of the project, critical ecosystem/environmental factors, technical approaches, costs, monitoring activities, and a contact for more detailed information. The purpose of the inventory is to provide a central repository of restoration project information specific to the MAIA Region. It is intended to be useful to researchers, restoration practitioners, environmental resource managers, policy makers, consultants, and communities within the Mid-Atlantic area. All project information is provided by the organizations conducting the restoration activities.
This inventory has been integrated with the Office of Water's River Corridor and Wetland Restoration database and website. Restoration researchers and practitioners who wish to add projects from within the MAIA Region may do so by accessing the Put Your Project on the Map web site.
