There are no set, steadfast rules. Its an adaptive management plan, set in place to
manage the marsh, not the fishery. Is the fishery managed as well? Of course it is, but the primary objective of the weirs was to manage salinities in the marsh.
Typically, the weirs would open around the moons to allow ingress and egress. But the conditions were not right for that initially.
How did this thread degrade into another "W hate weirs" discussion? Who said the word "weirs"?
