Newly planted salt marsh cordgrass grows where construction debris once littered the shoreline of Scuffletown Creek choking out the natural wetlands. The Norfolk District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the City of Chesapeake, Va., restored about one acre of natural wetlands along Scuffletown Creek, a tributary of the Elizabeth River in Chesapeake, Va., in an effort to bring the river system back to a healthy thriving waterway after centuries of industrial activity impaired it.
