Conservation and Management
There are many worldwide organizations like The Nature Conservancy, Environment Protection Agency, Buzzards Bay Coalition, Association to Preserve Cape Cod, and Department of Environmental Management that participate in salt marsh restoration, protection, and management.

Common restoration strategies include recovery of tidal exchange, recovery of sediment characteristics, reconstruction of soil level, conversion of dredged sediment to salt marsh, control of invasive species, and restricting boating and other water vehicles. The method(s) employed in a salt marsh depend on the specific marsh itself and local area. For example, a salt marsh in the Bay of Fundy, Canada may be restored by expanding the tidal channel through constructing a culvert, while a salt marsh in Northwest Europe may be restored by removing dikes.

In order to protect salt marshes, governments create reserves such as Shifting Lots Preserve in Plymouth, MA, Estero Marsh Preserve, and Clive Runnells Family Mad Island Marsh. These are areas where resources and land are managed and restricted.
