| Abstract: | The purpose of this document is to evaluate the environmental impacts of the proposed beach renourishment for the Tybee Island Shore Protection Project on Tybee Island, Georgia. The proposed renourishment is very similar to what has previously been performed at Tybee Island during the first nourishment in 1987, the subsequent 1995 work by the Georgia Ports Authority (GPA), and renourishments in 2000 and 2008 in that similar techniques and equipment will be used. The proposed borrow area is 4,000 feet southeast of the southern tip of Tybee Island. This borrow area was used by GPA for the 1995 beach nourishment, and again by the Savannah District for the 2001 and 2008 renourishments. The area was expanded to the north for the 2008 renourishment project. |
