| Abstract: | The Board concurs in the recommendation of the reporting officers for beach erosion control measures in Martin County, Florida. The proposed plan consists of restoration and subsequent periodic nourishment of 20,215 feet of Atlantic Coast shoreline extending from near the southern limit of Stuart Public Beach north to the St. Lucie County line. The improvements are needed for the reduction of storm and hurricane damages and to meet projected beach recreation demand. The first cost of the recommended project is estimated to be $9,419,000, and the benefit-cost ratio is 1.7. The Board recommends the plan subject to cost-sharing and financing arrangements satisfactory to the President and the Congress. |
