Noisette Creek Preserve
Noisette Creek has a 1,400 acre watershed:
The Noisette Creek Preserve spans 135 acres of open
water, marshlands, and highlands dedicated by North Charleston as
an environmental asset with Michaux Conservancy as steward. Special
overlay district status is envisioned much like the existing Ashley
River District. Noisette Creek is a highly urban ecosystem. It
needs restoration due to a long period during which it has seen filling,
erosion, road and utility crossings, contaminated runoff, trash and
debris.
