October 31st, 2021 Annual Monitoring Report
DEP File Number: 83-2279
Project Address: 162B Pleasant Street, South Yarmouth, MA 02664
Project Summary:
This project involved the installation and anchoring of a coir roll array. After installation,
the array was covered with coir matting and nourished with compatible native sand. The
array was then planted with a mix of native shrubs and grasses to aid in bank
stabilization.
Activities Completed:
• Coir log array installation (August 2021)
• Sand nourishment (August 2021)
• Restoration planting- shrubs and grasses (September/October 2021)
Evaluation:
Restoration plantings are in good condition but should be evaluated again in the next
growing season to assess where establishment has been successful or unsuccessful.
Coir rolls and matting are also in good condition but will need to continue to be
monitored, especially following storm events, to assess any damages.
