1. What special considerations
did you have to make for the nesting sea turtle sites located on the barrier
island?
I had to be careful and build the everything away from the turtles because the lights of a building would attract them away from the ocean and kill them.
2. What special considerations had to be made when determining a good site for the proposed fishing pier?
I put the fishing pier in between the marshes on the lagoon side. Other than that, nothing.
3. What could be some of the potential problems that might arise from the proposed golf course? Propose some of the ways in which the impacts can be reduced.
It could be put too close to the turtles so we put it on the other side of the island. The golf course could be too challenging for people visiting.
4. What are the economic benefits to the community of Loggerhead County if the development was done with the least amount of environmental impact?
A beautiful place to live where humans and the environment live in correspondence.
5. Describe three ways in which humans negatively impact coastal ecosystems such as the one you are working on with Loggerhead Barrier Island.
1. Throw their trash on the island or in the ocean.
2. Disrupt the turtle nesting sight.
3. increased fossil fuel emissions.
6. How can maintaining natural vegetation help us to reduce the damage caused by oceanic events such as hurricanes, tsunami and continued beach erosion?
The roots hold the soil or sand together better to help erosion from happening and hold the ground together from being destroyed in a storm. There is also so much rain with a hurricane, so the natural vegetation may thrive.
7. After listening to the other groups make their presentations, were there any ideas they had you would have used if you had though about it before-hand? You should list at least three different ideas and indicate why their idea is actually better for the environment than yours.
At this point, I can't remember other groups presentations/ ideas.
