BEACH NOURISHMENT PROJECT 2023 The project will utilize a 30'' cutterhead suction dredge located at the Boca Raton Inlet ebb shoal. The dredge will first construct the South Boca Raton Beach Nourishment Project prior to extending the pipeline approximately 17,000 feet south into the Town of Hillsboro Beach.

The act provides three interrelated programs that the Department of Environmental Protection administers to protect the state's sandy beaches: the Coastal Construction Control Line; Beach Management Funding Assistance; and Beaches, Inlets and Ports programs.

Florida's beaches have long been preserved by the State of Florida as property “held in trust for the recreational use of the public”. Florida law states that the public has the right to freely use all beaches “below mean high water”.

CONSIDER COASTAL EROSION STRUCTURES Seawalls, revetments, bulkheads, groins and breakwaters may reduce erosion in the short-term. They also have very high initial investment costs.

Seawalls: Seawalls are one particularly effective way to prevent erosion. These are structures that are built along the coastline to stop waves from ever coming into contact with the sand/shore on the opposite side.

161.191 Vesting of title to lands.— 161. 141-161.211, the common law shall no longer operate to increase or decrease the proportions of any upland property lying landward of such line, either by accretion or erosion or by any other natural or artificial process, except as provided in s. 161.211(2) and (3).

Dunes and sand are lost to hurricanes, tropical storms, and winter cold front that bring severe weather. PINELLAS COUNTY — ing to a June report by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, more than half of the 825 miles of coastline they surveyed are critically eroded.

CONSIDER COASTAL EROSION STRUCTURES Seawalls, revetments, bulkheads, groins and breakwaters may reduce erosion in the short-term. They also have very high initial investment costs.

Seawalls are hard structures, built on land or intertidal areas, meant to curtail flooding or erosion in specific areas, which are often private residential or commercial properties and built structures.

Structural measures: Structural measures include sea walls, groins and breakwaters. These features reduce coastal risks by decreasing shoreline erosion, wave damage, and flooding.

Beach nourishment is the adding of sediment onto or directly adjacent to an eroding beach. This "soft structural" response allows sand to shift and move with waves and currents. Dune restoration is commonly carried out during a beach nourishment project as well.
