SPENDING ESTIMATE PER CALENDAR YEAR OF PROJECT DURATION: AL2-3 Year 1 $ 125,000.00 Year 2 $ 125,000.00 Year 3 $ 125,000.00 Year 4 $ 125,000.00 GOAL: The goal of this project is to increase public awareness of conservation and protection of coastal Alabama’s designated protected areas (Grand Bay Savanna, Lillian Swamp, Gulf State Park, Splinter Hill Bog, Perdido River Corridor and Mobile-Tensaw Delta) through the production of natural resource-based educational materials. OBJECTIVE: This project will design and print five separate conservation education products such as books, maps, videos, posters, calendars, and/or brochures for distribution to schools to educate at least 70,000 students. In addition, this project will construct a water quality kiosk at Five Rivers Alabama’s Natural Resource Center to provide 75,000 people annually a hands-on interactive exhibit of water quality dynamics. Coastal Alabama has a wealth of natural resources, and the conservation and protection of these resources is essential as development and population increases. This project will increase public awareness of Alabama's natural resources through the production five (5) educational materials such as books, brochures, maps, posters and videos. The educational materials will highlight the state's designated protected areas (Grand Bay Savanna, Lillian Swamp, Gulf State Park, Splinter Hill Bog, Perdido River Corridor and Mobile-Tensaw Delta) and describe the diverse flora and fauna, as well as the rich history and culture of Coastal Alabama. An example product would be a colorful poster of the "Butterflies of Coastal Alabama" or a brochure on the mound-building "Bottlecreek Indians". Educational materials such as this will promote Alabama's conservation endeavors, and will be distributed throughout classrooms in the coastal counties and in SLD facilities such as Weeks Bay Reserve and Five Rivers Delta Resource Center. Distribution goals are at least 70,000 students and at least 75,000 visitors to SLD facilities. The specific products and associated budgets will be developed at the grant phase of this project. Costs associated with this project include design fees, printing expenses and labor. The budget for this project is $400,000.00. A water quality exhibit will be constructed at Five Rivers Alabama’s Delta Resource Center that displays ambient water quality parameters in an interactive ‘hands-on” exhibit. The objective of the exhibit is to educate 75,000 people (i.e. visitors to Five Rivers) annually on the dynamics of water quality. For example, one display could highlight the salinity gradient north and south of the Mobile Bay Causeway. The associated budget for this project is $100,000.00.
