Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Shoreline Erosion Control Development and Demonstration Program of the US Army Corps of Engineers was established by Section 227 of the US Water Resources and Development Act (WRDA) of 1996 with initial funding appropriated in FY00. Section 227 provides a means by which the Corps can evaluate the functional performance of innovative or non-traditional approaches for abating coastal erosion and improving shoreline sediment retention at prototype-scale. A wide array of shore protection devices and methods will be constructed, monitored and evaluated at sites that represent varying energy conditions and shoreline morphologies. This program builds upon the experience and lessons of the "Low Cost Shore Protection Demonstration Program (Section 54)" of the 1970's. The Section 54 Program, authorized by WRDA 1974, focused on testing technologies for survivability in "low-wave energy" environments (USAE 1981). Objectives of Section 227 are to assess and advance the state of the art of shoreline erosion control technology, encourage the development of innovative solutions to the shoreline erosion control challenge and to communicate finding's to the public. Through an extensive technical transfer effort the Program will provide a means for furthering the use of well- engineered alternative approaches to shoreline erosion control. Emphasis will be placed on the evaluation of technologies from both functional and structural perspectives and will include bioengineered approaches.

Book excerpt: On August 29, 2001, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Jacksonville District authorized Coastal Systems International (Coastal Systems) to perform Phase I investigations for the 227 Demonstration Project at the 63rd Street Erosional Hot Spot, City of Miami Beach, Miami-Dade County. The Phase I investigations consisted of an analysis of beach erosion and sand transport, both cross-shore and longshore, for most of Miami-Dade County and in the vicinity of the 63rd Street Hot Spot. Based on these investigations, basic design parameters for a demonstration project were determined. This work will also provide calibration data for Phase 11 sediment transport modeling, and the investigations will be the basis for detailed shore protection design parameters for the demonstration project. The 63rd Street erosional hot spot demonstration project site along the City of Miami Beach shoreline provides an excellent opportunity to address "erosional hot spot" issues which are being experienced in many Federal shore protection projects. Beach fill hot spots are problematic in that they may trigger early project renourishments thereby increasing project costs. To address these issues, Section 227 of the Water Resource and Development Act of 1996 (WRDA 96) authorized the National Shoreline Erosion Control Development and Demonstration Program (NSECDDP). The Program is aimed at advancing the state-of-the-art and innovative shore protection solutions on the open coast in coastal shoreline protection. The Section 227 legislation provides a vehicle by which shore protection devices, designs, and methods can be constructed, monitored and evaluated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the findings of a task force review of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Shoreline Protection and Beach Erosion Control Program. The assessment of the program was in response to Fiscal Year 1994 "Passback Language" from the Office of Management and Budget. The report responds to concerns about the shoreline protection program, particularly concerning costs, benefits, environmental effects and the related influences on shoreline development. The study was performed in two phases. The initial phase was completed in January 1994 and published as IWR Report 94-PS-1, Shoreline Protection and Beach Erosion Control Study. Phase I: Cost Comparison of Shoreline Protection Projects of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The purpose of the first phase report was to provide early input to the Office of the Management and Budget regarding the scope and cost of Federal Civil Works shore protection. This second and final phase of the study incorporates: additional analysis of project costs and sand emplacements; and overview of risk management in the coastal zone; a comparison of actual versus anticipated benefits; a discussion on environmental considerations; and an analysis of any induced development effects associated with the Federal shore protection and beach erosion control program. Also, included is a summary of study findings and conclusions. The basis of this report and the data compiled by the task force reflects conditions as of 1 July 1993.
