Blue Huron Lagoon (Detroit) | See

The Detroit River Area of Concern Habitat Beneficial Use Impairments includes loss of fish and wildlife
habitat. The Blue Heron Lagoon is a 41-acre lake/wetland on Belle Isle that discharges to the Detroit
River. Direct access for fish from the River to the Lagoon is prohibited by sheetpile walls, grates and drop
structures. This project proposes to reconnect and naturalize the mouth of the Lagoon to the Detroit River
restoring fish access to 95 acres of wetlands, shallow and deep water habitat and 2.2 miles of canals.
Enhancement of fish habitat in the Detroit River has been proposed by the Remedial Action Plan as one
means of delisting impaired beneficial use.
