Description:

"The current EA analyzed the effects of the proposed Atlantic and shortnose sturgeon research, which will be conducted in the waters of South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia. Specifically, the funded work would be used for: development, installation, and maintenance of an acoustic receiver array to track the movement of shortnose and Atlantic sturgeon in North Carolina (Roanoke, Chowan, Meherrin, and Cape Fear rivers), South Carolina (Savannah, Combahee, Edisto, Cooper, Santee, and Winyah Bay system), and Georgia (Altamaha, Ogeechee and Satilla rivers) rivers, coastal waters, and the Intracoastal Waterway; acoustic and satellite tagging and monitoring the movements of 20 to 30 (of each species) Atlantic sturgeon and shortnose sturgeon each year (i.e., 60 to 90 total per species over the life of the project) to identify and assess the use of spawning and other habitat and interbasin and coastal movements; development and testing of a less invasive procedure for aging of these two species based on relative DNA telomere length from small tissue samples; and participation in multiple types of stakeholder outreach efforts"--Cover letter.
