Town of Hilton Head
Island
Natural Resources
The Town's Natural Resources Division enforces
the provisions of Chapter 6 of the Land
Management Ordinance, including preservation of trees and native vegetation,
wetlands, and beaches. The Division reviews all development projects to
assure that natural resources are protected to the maximum extent possible.
We work closely with developers and property owners to accomplish the goals
of maintaining a liveable environment for our residents, visitors, and wildlife.
In addition, we strive to become involved
in all aspects of natural resource protection including protection of
the loggerhead sea turtle, testing and monitoring of the Island's water
quality, creation of wildlife corridors, education of the public.
We produce informative brochures, give talks
to civic groups, and involve school children through classroom exercises
and field trips.
Please explore our site to find out more
about the exciting and innovative projects we work on.
