According to boston.com, Scituate has received two grants totaling $110,000 aimed at fixing longstanding coastal problems.
These grants from the state Department of Conservation and Recreation include $60,000 to help with repairs to the seawall on Turner Road and $50,000 for the dredging project at the intersection of the North and South Rivers.
“ We try to focus on public safety issues. We see our role in assisting cities and towns with sign infrastructure issues that they have in their waterways, ” DCR Commissioner Ed Lambert said. “ We’re increasingly aware of the impact of sea-level rise and weather-cycle changes that create problems.”
