| Text_Body | NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) recently developed the [[IRLNews:Kennedy Space Center Develops Indian River Lagoon Health Initiative Plan|Indian River Lagoon Health Initiative Plan]] to provide a framework for KSC and its partners to navigate the unique relationship between the space center and the [[Indian River Lagoon Estuary|Indian River Lagoon (IRL) National Estuary]]. The national estuary is on and adjacent to the spaceport, and the plan proposes restoration projects and actions directly addressing current environmental challenges. Improving the understanding of water quality, gaining information for sound land management, and creating actionable projects and restoration actions based on that information are the key aims of the plan. Many of the proposed restoration projects are in direct response to what has been observed by decades of monitoring the health of the soil, vegetation, and wildlife in the Indian River lagoons around Kennedy Space Center. These projects include muck removal, reducing reliance on septic tanks and removing those already decommissioned, restoring shellfish to improve water clarity, and expanding living shorelines.
