If successful, projects like this could be a potential interim solution for future renourishments efforts. “The Charleston District is excited to begin this pilot project and is hopeful it will provide a winning solution to erosion in between full renourishment periods,” said Lt. Col. Rachel Honderd. “Protecting the infrastructure behind the dunes on this beach is of vital importance.” This beneficial-use project will place 60,000 cubic yards of sand near the shore. Placement will last through the end of May. The scheme will be completed using a vessel owned by the Wilmington District, the shallow draft dredge Murden. The entire project will be completed in-house by USACE personnel.
