Greetings Coral Listers, 
I have been presented with a project that involves restabilization of rubble and coral head (up to 1m dia) relocation after a vessel grounding.  My personal coral reef experience has been primarily associated with ecosystem health and monitoring rather than rubble stabilization and coral head relocation, and was hoping that some of you could point me in the direction of some good literature/references/methods for performing such tasks.  The work statement discusses using rebar and concrete for some of the work (which seem like reasonable methods), however I would like to review other alternative methods as well, if any.  Thanks for your time, hope to hear from some of you soon.
