This project will acquire nearly 560-feet of high quality nearshore habitat. The Close Property features an active feeder bluff, mature mixed-stand marine riparian forest, and a mixed-course sediment beach with large woody debris, sorted sediments, and associated aquatic habitats. The nearshore in the project area has been documented to support a great diversity of salmonid species and important prey resources, including chinook, chum, coho, pink, cutthroat, steelhead, sand lance, surf smelt, and herring. The project area may support other salmonid species, such as bull trout. This project will protect on-site habitats and functions important to the success of salmonids and their prey resources in the nearshore. Based on the Bainbridge Island Nearshore Assessment, a SRFB funded project, we know the Close Property is a priority conservation area located within an at-risk drift-cell. The project is important to maintaining properly functioning conditions along a drift-cell that contains very sensitive habitats, including a stream subestuary/lagoon, a pocket estuary, and forage fish spawning areas. The Close Property is at-risk of being sold & developed, but can become a significant part of a larger system of nearshore and terrestrial habitat conservation if acquired. This grant request will contribute to the acquisition of the nearshore portions (i.e. intertidal and marine riparian habitat) of the 64-acre Close Property, which abuts the 318-acre Gazzam Lake Park and Wildlife Preserve.
