What is a Beach Management Feasibility Study and Sand Source Study?
The purpose of the study is to determine how the sand system in the project area is affected by waves, tidal action and storm surge. The study is intended to determine where the sand is going once it washes away from our beaches and to identify the factors that are causing the erosion to occur. In addition, the study and related sand search is intended to identify the source for restoring the sand to our beaches and address the impact that this will have on the regions sand dynamics.
