Dinner Event: Sullivan’s Pond – Daylighting Shubenacadie Lakes Ecosystem Project

This is a landmark project that is helping restore the natural functioning of the Shubenacadie lakes ecosystem. Daylighting of buried watercourses in urban areas is taking place around the world in small numbers, making this project noteworthy from a national and international perspective. The project resulted in a pleasant looking and sounding piece of infrastructure that is critically important in providing flood protection for the community, while providing a pathway for fish to travel between the ocean and the lakes; something that has been lost for nearly fifty years.
