About 9 acres of beach, dune, ravine and Restoration bluff habitats along Lake Michigan were restored. 1. The ravine stream was daylighted through removal of a culvert in the parking lot and connectedness to Lake Michigan was restored to allow fish to move freely to habitat upstream of the parking lot which was already in exemplary condition. 14 2.
