Description
Summary:The spring and fall surveys of 2014 served to quantify the natural and human efforts to restore Atlantic County’s beaches to pre-Sandy conditions or in the case of existing federal shore protection projects, back to the design parameters. Data collected at the 10 oceanfront beach profile locations cover the municipal beaches from the City of Brigantine Beach to the Borough of Longport. Both the Absecon Island and Brigantine Beach US Army shore protection projects have been re-supplied with sand from the authorized borrow zones and restored back to each project’s design dune and beach cross section. Little Beach on Pullen Island to the north of Brigantine is a natural area and is not included in the NJBPN or any beach management program.
