Description
The Department of State’s South Shore Estuary Reserve (SSER) is contracting with Atlantic Marine Conservation Society (AMSEAS) to conduct a seal habitat utilization analysis. This analysis will offer information as to where seals are feeding, resting, having pups and rearing their young. AMSEAS will conduct land, boat and aerial based surveys of the SSER to document current population numbers. The team will also analyze historic seal stranding and sighting data to develop baseline population data and compare that to current data collected. The SSER and Office of Planning Development and Community Infrastructure intends to utilize this data to inform the designation of Significant Habitats and provide recommendations for protection of the species within the estuary.
