Surfers' Point Managed Shoreline Retreat Project is Getting National Attention
- "As of 2014, the beach at Surfers' Point has a 70-foot wide buffer zone and a significant sediment reservoir. As a result of increased dune elevations, erosion is no longer a threat to infrastructure inland from the beach. The project was designed with sea level rise in mind, and project leaders feel confident the restored area will prove to be more resilient than adjacent beaches as water levels increase." - excerpt from project description on NOAA's U.S. Climate Resistance Toolkit website.
