North Carolina Coastal Scientists Overwhelmingly Oppose Terminal Groins
- "Any coastal structure designed to trap or hold sand in one location will, without question, deprive another area of that sand. In simple terms, any structure (including terminal groins) that traps sand will cause erosion elsewhere. Permitting the construction of terminal groins will harm the coast and place downdrift property at risk." - excerpt from statement by 10 prominent NC coastal scientists, as reported in the State of the Beach report for North Carolina.
