| Abstract: | The Flagler County shoreline is subject to erosion caused by storms and natural shoreline processes. The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of providing Federal Hurricane and Storm Damage Reduction (HSDR) measures to portions of the Flagler County shoreline. Shoreline erosion in the Flagler County study reaches threatens oceanfront infrastructure, including National Scenic Highway, State Road (SR) A1A, and over 1,476 structures having a combined estimated structural and content value of approximately $340 million. SR A1A, the only north-south hurricane evacuation route for communities along this portion of the coastline, is an integral part of the county’s infrastructure and is essential for public safety during evacuation events. Opportunities to reduce the risk of coastal damages and improve conditions were examined in this study. The local sponsor for this project, Flagler County, has indicated strong support for feasibility phase studies for HSDR purposes along their shoreline and has declared willingness and the capability to share applicable costs in the current study and the Recommended Plan. |
