USACE released the Integrated General Reevaluation Report and Environmental Assessment for the City on October 30th, 2020.
The study is revaluating the existing 50-year project on Folly Beach, which suffered damages in recent major storm events. The study will determine if a new 50-year project is warranted to replace the current project.
A new project, if approved and authorized, would supersede the existing project.
This 100% federally funded study is evaluating alternatives, both structural and non-structural. It also provides a holistic approach to shoreline erosion, wave damage and coastal storm surge based on engineering, economic, and environmental analyses.
