Shoreline study postponed

The Fish River shoreline assessment rescheduled for Saturday has been postponed again due to rain and the threat of continued flooding on the river, Bethany Kraft, director of the Alabama Coastal Foundation, said.

Volunteers will meet May 2 at Bohemian Park on Baldwin County 48 in Fairhope. Kraft said the postponement will allow time for the river to stabilize and allow participants to have a better chance of observing the characteristics of the river that are included as part of the study.

The assessment is intended to study the condition of the river shoreline, including erosion, sediment deposition and the number of invasive plant species, along the waterway from Ala. 104 to south of Baldwin County 32, according to Kraft
