Figure 44: Currently used for parking, MU 15 is proposed to be excavated and turned into a gravel intertidal gradient. The boulders seen in this photograph will be placed as rock intrusions onto which sessile marine organisms can be come attached. Figure 45: In MU 16, this rough-cut grass area and a portion of the adjacent parking area are proposed to become a sandy coastal beach. The area proposed as intertidal habitat (MU 15) is in the foreground. Blackie Spit Park: Wildlife Habitat Enhancement Plan – Management Unit 19 95
