  • #DidYouKnow: SC Ports created 22 acres of salt marsh in the middle of Charleston Harbor by planting more than 100,000 native species of marsh vegetation on Drum Island, reverting the southern end of the island back to salt marsh. It is now a thriving ecosystem that supports Charleston Harbor. The salt marsh improves water quality, supports surrounding ecosystems, and provides a habitat for birds, fish and marine life. “Anyone walking or biking the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge can watch these plants grow over time,” SC Ports’ Permitting Manager Mark Messersmith said. “The restoration of this salt marsh is significant to the Charleston Harbor watershed. #EarthDay (📷: SCPA/English Purcell)
