The renourishment is part of an ongoing long-term coastal management plan to replenish sand lost due to erosion and hurricanes, increase storm protection for oceanfront properties and infrastructure, widen the recreational beach, and provide additional natural habitat for wildlife.
GLDD previously worked with the Town of Southampton (NY) to successfully complete the 2013‒2014 Bridgehampton-Sagaponack nourishment campaign, which placed 2.5 million cubic yards of sand onto 5.6 miles of oceanfront.
The company has already mobilized land-based equipment (dozers, loaders, dump trucks, fuel tanks, shorepipes, etc.) to designated staging areas located at Sagg Main Beach and Flying Point Beach.
Over the next few weeks, the CSD Texas will be pumping sand through the submerged pipeline and discharging it onto the beach.
Weather permitting, construction is expected to complete before the end of March when the implementation of protection measures for piping plovers restricts activities along the oceanfront.
