"The Surfrider Foundation Eastern Long Island Chapter has also met with elected officials to convince them that moving the Montauk Lighthouse is the best way to save it for future generations. The Army Corps of Engineers has a plan to build yet another rock revetment at the Lighthouse base, but the Chapter has argued that moving the structure is the most cost-effective and environmentally-sound plan." -- excerpt from the Surfrider Foundation. Read Surfrider's Position Paper on the US Army Corps of Engineers Montauk Point Storm Damage Reduction Plan.
