The Coastal Mississippi Wetlands Initiative area includes Hancock, Harrison, and Jackson Counties along the Mississippi coast extending 70 linear miles eastward from the Louisiana-Mississippi border to Grand Bay National Wildlife refuge on the Mississippi-Alabama border and inland. The goal of the initiative is to provider wintering and migration habitat for lesser scaup, ring-necked ducks, and various dabbling duck species. The Coastal Mississippi Wetlands Initiative focuses on the three major waterfowl habitats available including coastal marsh (emergent vegetated wetlands), submerged aquatic vegetation, and forested wetlands.
