Study Supports Coastal Resiliency Institute
ĢƵ will move forward partnerships and funding for a Coastal Resiliency Institute and Marine Science Center (CRI/MSC) in Atlantic City.
A recently completed feasibility study commissioned by the University recommended locating the institute in Absecon Inlet, specifically the Gardner’s Basin area.
The study said the center could serve as a nexus for the development of a “blue economy” in the region. It cited the site’s access to the ocean, deep-water marina facilities, and direct access to surrounding waterways, dunes, beaches, wetlands and urbanized coast necessary for teaching and research.
