The Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana (CRCL) is excited to have you join us in Buras, LA! Launched in June 2014, CRCL’s Oyster Shell Recycling Program recycles shell from participating New Orleans-based restaurants and uses that shell to restore oyster reefs and shoreline habitat across Coastal Louisiana. For this Plaquemines Reef project, volunteers will load bagged oyster shells onto trailers, trucks, and boats at our Buras Boat Harbor site to facilitate on the water deployment by Grand Bayou community members. The Plaquemines Reef will protect a sensitive heritage site from further erosion. Additionally, as this is our last reef deployment from the Buras site, volunteer assistance in trash cleanup and site close out would be greatly appreciated. We strive to leave the site in better shape than when we moved in.
