    A New York District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ crew places mollusk shells into waters off Governors Island in New York Harbor Oct. 6, 2010, creating an artificial oyster reef. The effort was part of an experiment examining the possibility of re-creating a healthy oyster population in New York and New Jersey waters. A symposium, “Restoring the New York-New Jersey Harbor Estuary: Ensuring Ecosystem Resilience and Sustainability in a Changing Future,” held June 3, 2014, in Manhattan, attracted more than 200 scientists, engineers, academics and restoration professionals discussing progress and new initiatives to restore the estuary.
