Logger Head Island

1. We wanted to keep as much of the civilization away from the hatching area as possible. To do this, we only put the research center near the turtles for easier access for researching purposes. The houses that are further away from the beach all have lighting restrictions after a certain time of day to prevent confusion to hatched turtles.

2. We put it on the opposite end of the island so that there was not to much at one end. We made it so it faces directly into the ocean for the most optimal fishing. It was also away from any of the islands natural occurrences.

3. It could take up a lot of the islands natural space. It could also potentially make a new Eco system on its own causing some of the natural species to migrate to it. Some of the ways it could be reduced would be to place the golf course in a smaller portion of the island away from the naturally occurring things.

4. It would be a very beautiful community that a lot of people would like to vacation on. The golf course alone would be a very good economic booster for the area, as well as all of the homes that would be sold.

5. We make public beaches in potential nesting areas. We leave trash that the animals could potentially eat and choke on and we also can disrupt the naturally occurring waves by building sea walls and jetties.

6.They all act as a natural cement in a way by preventing the waves from doing to much damage. They take away some of the impact and keep a lot of the natural sediment in place.

7. Our group had a lot of good ideas that other group had already integrated into their own islands.
