Facilitate shoreward migration of coastal wetlands though land acquisition and removal of hard shore protection (e.g., bulkheads, dikes, seawalls) or other barriers to tidal flow. Preserving open space for shoreward migration and restoring tidal hydrology are two major goals of the Lummi Nation Wetland and Habitat Mitigation Bank and other current and planned restoration projects. By accommodating for sea level rise and facilitating the inland migration of wetland plants and animals, the Lummi Nation has adopted what is arguably the best adaptation strategy for preserving coastal wetlands in the face of climate change. Continuation and expansion of these programs and other actions that prevent coastal squeeze is highly recommended.
