Restore the Shore in Long Beach, CA

"After years of diligent advocacy, Surfrider Foundation's Long Beach Chapter successfully convinced its City Council to approve and finance a "reconnaissance study" to review the benefits of reconfiguring and potentially eliminating portions of the Long Beach Breakwater. This is just the first step in a long process to achieve the goals of cleaning up pollution in the harbor area and allowing waves to reach a long stretch of coast that has been unnecessarily denied ocean recreational opportunities that were once a famous attraction to the area." - excerpt from the "Chapter News" article (page 13) in Surfrider Foundation's Making Waves publication for March 2008.
