Approximately 35,000 cubic metres of sand that is to be removed from downstream of Sanctuary Cove will be used to replenish northern Gold Coast beaches.
Sediment which is unsuitable to be used on the beach will be transferred via a pipeline for processing at the Coomera dredged sediment management facility.
Maintenance dredging of the Coomera River channel is undertaken every two years under the Gold Coast Waterways Management Program (WMP).
