Introduction
"The 2013 Marsh Walk Feasibility Study was developed for the Town of Wells by Wright-Pierce.
Funding for this plan was provided by the Town.
Guidance and plan development assistance came from Town Staff, most notably, Jonathan Carter, Town Manager and Chris Mayo, Harbormaster. Ward Feurt, Refuge Manager at the Rachel Carson Wildlife Refuge, and Paul Dest, Director of the Wells Reserve, generously offered valuable insight and guidance.
Consultant team members from Wright-Pierce were Jonathan Edgerton, P.E., Senior Vice President; Jennifer Claster, Landscape Architect; Travis Pryor, Landscape Architect; and Thomas Hamill, GIS Analyst.
GIS data was graciously provided by Michael Livingston, Town Engineer, Shannon Belanger, Assistant Planner, and Susan Bickford, GIS/Natural Resource Specialist, Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve.
Thanks go to the citizens and representatives of local organizations, and state environmental regulators who participated in the public outreach efforts and meetings, and who provided input.
The draft plan was presented at a Town Council Workshop on September 10, 2013."
