30 - BEACH EROSION CONTROL

The Beach Erosion Control and Public Beach Restoration programs help mitigate coastal erosion by studying the causes of erosion, constructing beach enhancements, and other restoration efforts. Regional beach erosion restoration projects are constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in cooperation with state and local agencies. Localized beach restoration is typically constructed by local agencies with state cooperation.
