Creating an Ocean Rain Forest off the CA Coast

American Shoreline Podcast Network - A podcast by The American Shoreline Podcast Network

On this episode, Peter and Tyler welcome Jenny McGee to the show to learn about her work on the Wheeler North Reef, an artificial  reef project intended to mitigate environmental impacts from the San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station. Jenny is the Southern California Edison project manager for the project, and explains the regulatory purpose of the reef, its design, funding sources,  construction, and monitoring. It's a massive project that will hopefully provide substrate suitable for kelp to attach and grow, providing essential habitat for the regions marine life.
