The number of people with additional awareness of habitat effects and other project outcomes due to proximity to the project, assessed using project-scale methodologies such as surveys, interviews or focus groups.

The number of people with additional knowledge of habitat effects and other project outcomes due to project-associated educational outreach, assessed using project-scale methodologies such as surveys, interviews or focus groups.

Identification and evaluation of cultural ecosystem services (CES), which vary by community, for monitoring (e.g., Pascua et al. 2017). Where possible, project team can develop framework for pre-and post- restoration monitoring of CES.

The number of jobs directly supported by an oyster aquaculture project during operation (jobs supported through design and construction would be included in the “restoration jobs” metric below) reported as full-time employee equivalents every year.

The number of direct, indirect, and induced jobs associated with recreational fishers visiting the restored reef, based on fishing expenditures determined through a survey of recreational fishing anglers conducted by the restoration project.

Estimate of total recreational fishing expenditures due to the project compared to baseline of recreational fishing expenditures in surrounding area, calculated as the number of recreational fishing trips to the project site (estimated from random sampling counts as part of structured monitoring) multiplied by the average trip expenditure (from NOAA FEUS 2018 Report).

Estimate of total recreational activity expenditures due to the project compared to baseline of recreational activity expenditures in surrounding area, calculated as the number of recreational trips to the project site (estimated from random sampling counts as part of structured monitoring).

The number of jobs directly supported by the restoration project, including but not limited to project design, construction, project site maintenance, education, and monitoring, reported every year.

The total amount of money spent on the restoration project as reported in the project budget every year.

Estimate of proportion of surveyed harvesters who say that food harvested at project site is important for feeding their household and if that has changed since the installation of the project at site

Change in self-reported state of well being. Survey of visitors pre- and post- time at project site.

Change in performance on simple recall or other cognitive function tests pre- and post- recreation activity or time at project site.

Total amount of public infrastructure or private property (measured in number and type of properties, or length of road) that experiences decreased adjacent erosion rates due to the restoration project reported every year.
