The osprey nest is Heard's Eagle Scout project that he built with the help of members of his troop with materials donated by Lowe's and Norwich Lumber. NPU's help installing the pole was a free service. To install the osprey nest, Heard had to have approval from the Norwich Harbor Management Commission and state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, and permission of the owner of the land where the nest was placed.
