Argilla Road
A thirty-two inch cross connection culvert at Argilla Road restricted natural tidal flushing to a 20-acre marsh. This undersized culvert was replaced with a 5-foot by 8-foot concrete box culvert in November 1998 to increase the mean-high-water level in portions of the previously restricted marsh.
