Coastal Firms, Fisheries Need Healthy Estuaries

Description:

“Go to any port town along New England’s coast and you’ll find a local
seafood market filled with the day’s freshest catch of local fish and
shellfish. These iconic small businesses that define our coastal
communities rely on healthy estuaries to survive economically. The
locally caught seafood these vendors sell needs the environmental
habitats found in our bays and estuaries to thrive. It is a delicate
balance.”
