| Abstract: | Infrastructure along the Jupiter Carlin, Palm Beach County, Florida shoreline, is subject to damage from wave attack, erosion, and inundation caused by coastal storms. It is projected that, without extending the period of Federal participation in periodic beach nourishment, storm-induced erosion in the study area will continue damaging infrastructure, limiting habitat, and jeopardizing storm evacuation and relief efforts. This study evaluates the extension of Federal participation in beach nourishment efforts for the authorized Project through 2045, and its optimization. This Project addresses coastal storm damage reduction, as well as incidental opportunities for maintenance of environmental and recreation resources for the Jupiter Carlin Segment of shoreline in Palm Beach County, Florida. |
