177Site ID:GloucesterTown:1.5Acres:NoRapid Technical Site Assessment:RestrictionFillAgricultureOtherCompleted ProjectMediumPriority: Site consists of ~1.5 acres of historically-filled salt marsh north of Route 127A and west of Witham Street. The 1850s Coastal Survey map shows the site as intertidal salt marsh habitat. GIS analysis indicates that the site was filled in at some point after the mid 1800s. Restoration actions would remove fill down to appropriate marsh grades to restore wetland soils, hydrology, and vegetation. Restoration potential is considered low based on private ownership and likely high per-acre costs to excavate the fill and haul it from the site.
