A

A
C
A
C
Okay,
I
also
have
with
me
Two
Fellas
from
Olson
and
Associates,
that
is,
our
Coastal
engineering.
Firm
they've
been
managing
designing,
overseeing
Beach
projects
for
over
30
years
here
on
Hilton
Head
Island,
and
they
are
going
to
provide
an
overview
of
the
beach
program.
You
know
what
we've
done
in
the
past,
what
we're
going
to
do
in
the
future,
how
we
manage
our
beaches
right
so
I
think
that'll
be
very
interesting
and.
C
C
Yeah
awesome:
this
was
an
old
slide,
but
anyway
I
apologize,
I
should
say
community
service
and
Public
Safety
Committee
to
endorse
the
updated
plan.
The
background
here,
it's
DHEC
ocrm
really
regulates
the
beach.
They
have
a
beach
management
act,
they
regulate
all
the
oceanfront
beaches
in
the
state.
This
plan
you're
required
to
get
it
approved
and
updated
every
10
years.
We
had
at
last
approved
by
osirium
in
17.
So
this
is
a
five-year
local
update.
C
Beach
management,
beachfront
management
act.
They
they
list
the
folks
who
need
to
have
these
plans.
Here's
what's
on
the
current
website.
I
know
there
are
some
folks
who
have
not
updated
theirs
for
a
while.
Don't
know
the
details
of
that
as
to
why,
but
we
have
kept
ours
up
and
current
as
we
should
and.
C
Well,
I
think
the
main
risk
is
if
you
were
ever
to
seek
funding
if
the
town
was
ever
to
go,
seek
funding
and
we
did
not
have
a
current
Beach
management
plan.
I
think
that
would
that
is
a
key
to
unlock
funding.
I,
don't
know
that
there's
been
any
punitive,
you
know
any
damages
or
any
penalties
sought
against
any
municipalities
and
local
governments
that
don't
keep
their
plan
updated,
but
but
they
really
encourage
us
to
do
so
and,
like
I
say
it's
key
to
funding.
C
If
we
were
to
pursue
funding
yeah
as
I
just
said,
you
know
every
five
years:
they
want
the
local
governments
to
to
make
sure
they
review
and
update
their
plan
and
then
every
10
years
go
back
to
the
state
and
it's
a
formal
review
process,
and
then
the
state
will
adopt
it
history
of
our
plans.
You
know
first
done
in
92
and
although
those
are
not
five-year
intervals,
you
know
things
happen.
C
Things
change
along
the
way
and
whether
we
wanted
to
update
our
plan
to
the
state
said
you
need
to
update
your
plan,
but
those
were
the
the
last
dates
of
having
the
plan
updated.
So
it
was
last
done
in
17,
that
was
an
official
approved
by
the
state
plan,
and
here
we
are
in
22,
with
our
five-year
local
update
existing
conditions
at
the
beach.
The
Olsen
Engineers
will
go
over
this,
but
in
very,
very
good
stead.
C
Looking
over
the
last
32
years
of
how
much
more
sand
is
in
the
system
than
there
was
I.
Think
that's
something
to
be
very
proud
of,
and
it's
all
because
of
our
beach
renourishment
program.
The
beach
is
stable.
We
have
a
few
structures,
you
know
rock
groins
at
the
hill,
at
the
toe
at
the
Folly
Etc,
some
break
Waters
up
in
Port
Royal
sound
that
are
performing
as
intended.
You
know
serving
their
purpose
to
prevent
further
erosion.
Every
year
we
do
surveying
and
monitoring
with
Olsen
and
their
sub
Consultants.
C
That
will
turn
into
the
state
to
show
how
the
beach
is
changing
over
time
over
the
last
five
years,
the
the
overlays
protection
areas-
these
are
in
the
LMO
and
the
basic
intent
is
to
prevent
development
forward
towards
the
beach.
You
want
to
hold
people
where
they're
at
so
so
these
are
good
policies
to
have
in
there.
The
state
appreciates
that
at
the
local
level
we
are
controlling.
You
know,
development
encroaching
further
towards
the
beach.
C
So
you
can't
build
buildings,
but
you
know
people
can
build
pools
and
and
boardwalks
Etc
and-
and
we
go
out
and
look
at
that
stuff
when,
when
it's
getting
permitted,
Public
Access,
this
is
a
really
big
deal
with
the
state.
You
know:
we've
got
the
Beach
Parks
up
there
and
and
as
a
public
beach.
Of
course,
they
want
to
make
sure
that
we,
as
the
local
government,
allow-
and
you
know,
provide
access
to
the
beach.
C
C
These
they
have
different
classifications
of
Beach
Parks
by
the
number
of
spaces
and
how
many
are
served?
You
know
if
there's
10
spaces,
it's
this
classification,
if
there's
25,
if
it's
100
and
then
proximity
to
the
beach,
and
so
all
of
these
you
know
outer
Lane
has
I,
don't
know
if
it's
20
some
spaces
close
enough
proximity
to
the
beach
could
to
be
considered
public
beach
parking.
A
C
There
are,
you
know
several
private,
Beach
Outlets.
Of
course
you
know
within
the
gated
communities
and
Resorts
Etc,
but
but
you're
right
for
the
public
beach
access.
You
know
folks,
coming
here
from
off
Island
Etc
that
aren't
going
to
a
resort
yeah.
This
is
the
conduit
to
get
them
onto
the
beach,
so
Jeff.
D
C
D
C
The
Beats
for
a
management
act,
you
know,
but
but
we
we
try
to
keep
up
with
them.
I'm
a
member
of
the
South
Carolina
beach,
Advocates
I'm
on
that
board,
and
so
we
we
keep
track
of
legislation.
We
have
a
lobbying
group
that
talks
to
senators
and
and
congressmen
to
see
what
may
be
you
know
for
what
may
be
happening,
but
but
yeah.
If
something
like
that
were
to
happen,
I
think
we
would
be
out
in
front
of
it
with
the
beach
Advocates
folks
and
try
to
position
ourselves
as
best.
C
C
Here's
the
number
of
spaces
I
told
you
about
these
different
types
of
parks.
Is
it
a
public
access
point?
Is
it
a
local
public,
a
neighborhood
public
Community
public,
so
they
have
tiers
of
of
different
sized
parks
that
that
they
look
at,
and
here
are
the
numbers
of
Beach
parking
spaces
that
we
have
on
our
Beach
Parks.
C
So,
like
I
said,
14
was
the
number
that
was
arrived
at
several
years
ago
and,
and
we
are
over
that
number,
we
went
down
a
few
spaces.
We
took
out
the
13
meter
space
at
the
inverse
Beach
Road.
We
we
lost
some
spaces
in
the
net
when
Low
Country,
Celebration
Park
was
developed.
There
used
to
be
that
big
surface
lot.
C
The
gravel
lot
with
wheel
stops
that
had
a
few
hundred
spaces
and
so
in
the
net,
since
17
we've
lost
about
42
spaces,
but
we're
hoping
to
gain
those
back
with
our
Capital
Improvements
projects
at
Islanders
and
Chaplin,
along
with
Burke's
Beach,
so
we'll
gain
some
additional
parking
spaces
in
those
projects.
Jeff.
C
D
C
No,
that
that
that's,
how
they
categorize
their
parks
and
part
of
it
goes
back
to
remember
the
Islanders
Beach
Park
in
the
25
spaces
they
said
and
and
I
think
I
forget
which
one
of
those
it
was
now
it
might
be
the
neighborhood
Public
Access,
but
those
25
spaces.
It
was
under
that
Park
category
to
get
this
funding
to
get
that
million
dollars
for
sand
on
the
beach.
You
need
to
provide
Public
Access
within
this
proximity,
so
it
was
a
thousand
feet
from
the
project
and
the
number
was
25..
C
C
One
of
the
things
they
asked
about
beachfront
drainage
for
a
lot
of
communities
is
a
big
issue
right,
I'm
sure
you've
either
been
or
seen.
Myrtle
Beach
with
these
storm
water
outfalls
right
on
the
beach.
A
lot
of
folks
have
that
problem.
We
we
are
very
fortunate.
You
can
see
the
map
there
with
the
little
yellow
arrows.
These
are
drainage,
outfalls
from
from
Watershed,
so
the
the
colored
areas
there
are
different
watersheds
drainage
basins
and
and
the
arrows
indicate
where
they
flow
out.
C
You
know:
we've
got
the
Folly,
which
is
a
natural
natural
condition
there,
and
there
are
some
development
lands.
You
know:
Folly
Field,
neighborhood,
Beach
antennas
Etc
flow
out
of
that,
but
primarily
you
can
see
where,
when
the
island
was
developed
and
plumbed,
we
took
everything
back
to
the
The
Creeks,
mostly,
and
and
we
don't
have
drainage
inputs
out
on
the
Atlantic
Beach.
So
that's
really
really
a
good
thing.
C
C
You
know
from
the
dunes
back
to
development,
I
think
very,
very
good
condition
there
and
it's
well
managed
so
no
problems
there
and,
like
I,
say
DHEC
kind
of
Applause
what
we've
done
and
where
we
stand
in
that
regard,
for
the
authorities
that
manage
the
beach
ocrm.
Of
course,
you
know
under
the
beach
beachfront
management
act,
state
and
federal,
permitting
agencies.
C
We
are
working
with
Olsen
right
now
to
embark
on
the
design
you
know
of
the
next
project,
the
2025
renourishment
project
and
so
there's
a
host
of
Permitting
agencies,
Corps
of
Engineers
U.S
fish
and
wildlife,
State
DNR,
State,
OCR,
Etc
and
those
agencies
all
have
authority
and
permitting
obligations
on
the
beach
and
then
here
at
the
local
level.
Of
course,
we
have
the
LMO
in
the
town
code
I'll
get
to
those
sections
in
a
moment
here:
laws
and
ordinances.
You
know
section,
eight
one
is
the
beach
ordinance
as
we
call
it.
C
You've
got
the
general
Provisions
definitions,
Etc
prohibited
activities,
protect
the
dunes
Etc.
You
know
people
allowed
to
park
boats
on
the
beach.
There
was
a
new
addition
since
the
2017
update.
That's
one
thing:
we
notified
OCR
in
the
sea
turtle
protection,
which
is
really
the
lights
out,
ordinance,
we've
added
that
which
is
a
good
thing.
C
C
C
Ocrm
still
regulates
the
Atlantic
beachfront,
but
the
Gold
Line
is
is
what
it
had
been
for
years,
and
then
we
added
the
red
line
up:
poor
oil,
sound
to
Encompass,
Pine,
Island,
beach
up
to
park
creek,
and
so
that's
part
of
the.
What
they're,
looking
at
in
their
re-nourishment
to
to
manage
that
beach
front
along
that
red
line
as
well
up
to
the
end
erosion,
control
and
management?
You
know
this
is
the
beach
itself,
the
physical
Beach,
how
we
manage
and
maintain
it.
C
You
know
what
is
DHEC
looking
at.
They
say:
what
do
you
do?
We
have
a
devoted
funding
source,
which
is
is
really
great
thing
to
have,
but
we
have
a
re-nourishment
program.
You
know
going
back
to
30
plus
years
that
they'll
get
into
the
history
of
that
and
how
it
evolved
and
developed
and
why
it's
such
a
great
thing,
but
we
also
do
monitoring.
As
I
said,
we
do
surveys
and
and
photography
twice
a
year
in
the
spring
and
fall.
C
We
have
strategic
structures,
The
Rock,
groins
I
mentioned
you
know
the
Folly
at
the
toe
at
the
groin
near
Island
sand
sources.
That's
a
big
deal!
These
fellas
tell
me
there
are
places
in
Florida.
You
have
to
go
pretty
far
to
get
sand
and,
of
course,
that
drives
up
the
price,
we're
fortunate.
We
have
four
Shoal
areas
at
the
the
end
of
Calabogie
Emporio
sound
as
they
spit
out
into
the
ocean,
and
so
those
sand
deposit
sediments,
are
where
we
want
to
choose
our
sand.
We
have
to
go
through
a
whole.
C
Permitting
process
to
to
you
know,
see
the
wildlife.
What
is
there
any
archaeological
historic
things
within
those
shows
Etc,
so
lengthy,
permitting
process-
and
you
know
they've
done
corings
to
look
at
the
grain
size
Etc,
which
is
best
which
is
closest,
which
will
be
cheapest
but
which
is
permissible
with
these
federal
agencies,
and
so
that's
something
they'll
speak
about
as
well
control
advancement
of
seaward
development.
You
know
those
overlay
districts
I
spoke
of
that
that
helps
in
that
measure
and
we
protect
our
Dunes.
C
C
By
having
this
managed
program
and
having
the
monitoring
data
kept
current,
if
Ian
would
have
hit-
and
you
know-
had
a
catastrophic
losses
of
sand
on
the
beach,
we
would
immediately
have
gone
out
and
surveyed
and
and
started
a
project
worksheet
with
FEMA.
As
soon
as
it
was
a
declared
disaster
to
say
we
lost
X
yards
of
sand,
we
need
it
back
and
and
FEMA
has
a
program
to
assist.
C
But
if
you
don't
have
a
managed
program
where
you're
managing
the
beach-
and
you
know
what
was
there
before
the
storm-
you,
you
probably
won't
be
successful
in
getting
money
from
the
feds
I've
got
these
photos
which
are
really
meaningful
and
Olsen
has
some
in
their
presentation
as
well.
But
this
is
down
in
the
Coligny
North
Forest,
Beach
area.
C
You
see
the
the
first
house
there
in
90,
with
kind
of
the
a-shaped
roof
line,
and
and
that's
since
been
torn
down
in
a
new
big
home
built,
but
but
anyway,
back
in
the
day
in
the
90s,
you
know
you
had
water
lapping
up
against
rocks
at
low
tide,
even
in
some
segments
of
the
beach
and
and
so
for
the
folks
who
haven't
lived
here
too
long
and
don't
appreciate
what
it
used
to
look
like
or
what
it
could
look
like.
If
this
program
wasn't
sustained,
it's
it's.
C
The
re-nourishment
program,
we're
gearing
up
for
a
project
in
25
we've
already
they're
working
on
the
design,
we're
holding
a
permitting
meeting
with
all
the
agencies
up
in
Charleston
next
month.
But
this
is
a
history
of
what
we've
done
got
dollar
values
on
there
back
back
in
the
report.
Nelson
has
them
as
well,
but
but
this
is
really
what
we
do
to
maintain.
The
Beats
I
mean
this.
This
is
the
program.
C
This
is
the
meat
of
why
we
have
such
a
beautiful
white
beaches
and
the
the
plan
has
appendices
in
there.
You
know
I've
exerted
from
our
town
code
the
beach
management
overlays.
We
have
an
inventory
of
all
the
beach
structures.
Folks
went
up
and
down
the
the
coastline
looking
at
pools
and
boardwalks,
and
all
that
we
need
to
report
that
to
DHEC
updated
the
parking
Public
Access
inventory
table,
they
went
done.
You
know
prior
studies.
These
folks
have
been
doing
analysis
and
designs
and
studies
for
several
years.
C
C
Yeah
I'll
make
a
note:
I
will
talk
with
code
enforcement
about
that
you
know
going
forward.
What
do
we
want
to
do
in
the
future?
I
mentioned
the
Capital
Improvements
program.
We
have
two
projects
ongoing
at
Chapman,
Parks,
Burke's,
Beach
area
and
Islanders.
We
want
to
get
more
parking
spaces
in
there
land
acquisition
program,
anytime,
There's
an
opportunity
to
get
land
on
the
beach
or
if
we
could
expand
our
Beach
Parks
I
think
that's
a
good
thing.
C
You
know
that's
something
we'll
continue
to
do.
We
have
the
turtle,
Patrol
and
those
folks
and
and
we'll
try
to
do
more
with
the
birds
and
other
Wildlife
on
the
beaches
coordinate
with
the
chamber
to
promote
the
beach.
Of
course,
the
state
doesn't
have
any
rules
in
the
works.
Like
I
said.
If
there
is
legislation
that
we
need
to
work
on
or
if
there's
a
point
where
they're
going
to
update
the
beachfront
management
act,
we
will
participate
in
that
and
and
help.
C
When
we're
we're
going
to
do
this
parking
management
contract
right
as
we
roll
that
out,
there
will
be
a
a
big
public
information
effort
to
not
only
tell
folks,
you
know,
here's
the
new
program,
here's
where
you
have
to
pay
to
park,
how
much
Etc,
but
also
to
highlight
you,
know
the
the
access
points
and
and
how
to
get
there
and
so
forth.
There'll
be
an
app
that
people
can
have
on
their
funds.
A
A
C
As
most
things
are
built
out,
we
don't
have
any
recommendations
pending
for
LML
updates
and
and
most
of
the
beachfront
area
is
built
out.
I
think
those
are
on
there
to
to
always
be
aware
and
if
we
need
to
update
it,
but
we
don't
have
anything
really
pending
right
now,
I
mean
I,
think
I,
think
the
policies
and
ordinances
are
good.
A
C
C
You
know
Beach
parking,
Public
Access
manage
the
erosion
through
our
projects,
climate,
adaption,
sea
level
rise.
These
folks
will
get
into
that
about
what
is
the
best
way
to
tackle
that
and
and
it's
through
an
ongoing
program.
There
is
not
a
singular
project.
We
built
this
and
we're
good
for
the
next
50
years.
C
The
the
key
is
an
ongoing,
sustained
project
or
program
that
will,
you
know,
deal
to
mitigate
the
sea
level
rise
on
the
beaches
and
you
know,
work
with
DHEC
as
needed
regulations,
funding
opportunities,
Etc
and
yeah.
While
we
were
here
today.
This
was
the
ask
of
the
community
service
and
Public
Safety
Committee
to
endorse
the
updates
to
the
local,
comprehensive
Beach
management
plan,
and
this
did
pass
unanimously
with
the
Planning
Commission
a
few
months
back
when
we
presented
that.
D
D
C
D
E
There
we
go
test
all
right,
so
if
I
understand
your
correction
correctly,
the
public
trust
Doctrine
essentially
says
property.
That's
held
open
for
the
benefit
of
the
public,
an
example
of
that
would
be
any
property.
That's
located
below
the
mean
high
water
Mark.
It's
essentially
territory
of
the
state
of
South
Carolina,
that,
through
the
public
trust
Doctrine,
is
held
open
for
the
use
and
enjoyment
of
the
public.
E
E
Can
become
an
issue
if
you
deal
with
property
lines
that
sometimes
comes
up
when
you
hear
about
King's
Grant
and
things
like
that.
The
way
that
you
defeat
the
public
trust
Doctrine,
is
by
going
back
and
be
able
to
show
a
continuous
chain
of
title
back
to
some
kind
of
King's
Grant.
So
it
happens
occasionally,
but
it's
it's
still
pretty
infrequent.
Okay,.
A
If,
if
I
could
tag
on
to
that,
recognizing
the
the
sea
storm
of
population
growth
that
and
we're
already
seeing
signs
of
it
on
two
between
170
and
95
to
the
right
and
left
of
278.,
we'll
have
I,
would
predict
a
dramatic
increase
in
demand
for
access
to
our
beach
and
since
access
is,
is
a
right,
I
gather.
If
we,
if
we
take
measures
to
create
a
governor
or
a
limitation
on
access
just
so
we
avoid
overcrowding.
We
can
only
take
so
many
people
are.
A
E
So
because
the
beach
itself
is
owned
by
the
state
under
the
public
trust
doctor
and
that
we
just
discussed
if
you
can
legally
get
to
the
beach
you're
entitled
to
be
there,
regardless
of
the
number
of
people
that
are
there.
So
what
we
control
are
the
access
areas
that
are
owned
by
the
town
and
we've
done
that
before
through
regulations
and
Islanders
and
some
other
places.
E
E
You
know
with
somebody
there
with
a
clicker
and
say
all
right:
we've
we've
reached
1300
you've
got
to
stop
and
we're
going
to
put
up
the
The
Velvet
Rope
and
that
next
person
has
to
wait
until
somebody
leaves
that's
given
that
the
beach
itself
is
open
and
owned
by
the
state.
There's
going
to
be
no
way
to
do
that
and
I
can
tell
you.
A
E
Well,
Mr
Harkins,
to
that
point,
the
agreement
that
we
have
with
PCI
and
our
parking
contractor
the
technology
that
we're
going
to
look
at
installing
will
be
able
to
give
a
real
time
count
of
available
parking
spaces
at
most,
if
not
all,
of
our
beach
park
areas,
and
so,
while
there
won't
be
a
sign,
that's
out
on
the
roadway
that
says
that
there
will
be
the
ability
for
somebody
to
pull
that
up
and
see
real
time
what
parking
is
available
at
the
Town
Beach
Parks.
Thank
you.
F
C
No
I
mean
the
the
state
used
to
have
a
policy
of
retreat
and
they
changed
that
a
while
back
to
say,
preservation.
You
know
we're
here
to
preserve
the
beach
I
know:
we've
had
an
issue
with
one
of
the
major
resorts
on
the
island
looking
to
to
develop
a
a
non-permanent,
you
know
just
uses
out
towards
the
land,
but
all
in
all
I,
don't
think
you
know
we
haven't
had
from
from
other
developers
good.
You
know
good
yeah
I
think
most
people
appreciate
what
it
is
and
how
valuable
it
is
and
have.
F
C
C
F
G
F
G
D
C
Speak,
that's
that's
good
news,
yes,
sir,
very
good
and
and
FEMA
would
look
at
the
pre-storm
conditions,
so
we
had
a
managed
Beach
and
say
if
you
know
if
these
re-nourishment
projects
happen
every
eight
to
ten
years,
if
we
were
on
the
tail
end,
hey
we're
getting
ready
to
re-nourish
in
two
years.
We
know
we
have
lost
sand
in
some
areas.
C
C
Yeah,
if
a
storm
hit
tomorrow
and
we
lost
a
million
yards,
we
would
say:
look
we're
going
to
do
a
project
in
two
to
three
years.
Let
us
add
that
volume
of
sand
to
that
project
and
if
we
make
the
applications
right
and
have
the
documentation
to
prove
what
Santa's
loss
FEMA
would
fund
that
portion
to
recoup
that
that's
the
process.
Mr.
C
A
C
C
Yeah,
if
you
said
that
was
the
Baseline
since
we
started
the
program,
how
much
sand
have
we
put
or
built
into
the
system
now
so
yeah?
That
was
the
Baseline
and
you
know,
as
Al
said,
if
we
had
done
nothing,
it
would
have
eroded,
it
would
have
gone
negative,
but
if
you
take
that
as
a
baseline,
here's
when
there
was
no
program,
we've
started
a
program.
We've
put
this
much
sand
in
the
system
built
this
beach
out
and
we
want
to
sustain
that.
A
C
A
H
H
Will
those
parking
spaces
if
they
were
to
to
become
reality?
Would
they
be
reserved
for
or
could
they
be
reserved
for
residents,
or
will
we
be
in
a
position
like
we
were
at
Islanders
park
with
those
25.?
If
anything,
we
add,
are
they
limited
to
public
spaces,
or
can
we
restrict
them
in
any
way
to
just
residents
I.
C
Think
that's
up
the
Town
Council.
You
know
we
exceed
the
threshold
that
ocrm
has
for
us,
the
1400,
so
so
yeah.
If
we
were
incorporating
new
spaces
within
Islanders,
those
could
be
for
Highland
residents
only
if
we
were
to
add
metered
spaces
out
on
the
fire
field
right
away
and
still
be
in
a
close
enough
proximity
to
serve
the
function
of
Beach
parking
where
we
got
our
grant
from
DHEC,
then
good
for
us.
You
know
at
chaplain,
however,
we
Town
Council
chooses
to
to
you
know,
build
new
parking
spaces.
E
I
could
just
let
me
add
some
additional
information
to
that.
So
we've
got
a
clear
response
within
the
state's
definition
for
public
parking.
It
has
to
be
accessible
to
the
public,
and
so
the
spaces
that
are
reserved
for
residents
do
not
count
towards
our
requirement
of
having
1400
now
you're
allowed
to
charge
for
the
spaces,
but
as
long
as
they
are
available
on
a
first
come
first
serve
basis
to
any
member
of
the
public,
local
or
otherwise.
E
Then
they'll
meet
the
state's
definition
of
publicly
accessible
and
so
I
want
to
make
clear
if
we,
if
we
add
spaces
or
if
we
redesignate
spaces,
to
make
them
reserved
for
residents,
we
certainly
have
the
ability
to
do
that.
One
so
long
as
we
don't
go
below
that
1400
threshold,
which
is
part
of
our
contractual
agreement
with
the
state
or
if
we
add
spaces.
We
just
know
that
we're
not
going
to
add
to
that
the
overall,
publicly
accessible
figure,
if
they're,
otherwise
restricted
so
I,
want
to
make
sure
that
that
was
clear.
Let.
E
That
correct
I
would
say
that
that
would
meet
the
letter
of
the
agreement,
in
that
it
states
that
there
are
1400
spaces
would
I
be
surprised
if
the
state
came
to
us
during
our
next.
You
know
update
of
the
plan
and
say
you
should
have
more
than
1400
spaces,
because
if
you
think
back
historically
originally
and
and
Jeff
I,
don't
know
if
you
know
the
the
original
number
1400
was
not
the
number
that
we
were
supposed
to
have.
It
was
supposed
to
be
somewhere
north
of
2000,
publicly
accessible
spaces
But.
E
Ultimately,
the
town
determined
that
we're
just
not
going
to
be
able
to
build
enough
spaces
to
meet
that
number.
So
we
renegotiated
back
down
to
fourteen
hundred,
so
I
think.
If
the
state
had
any
kind
of
influence
in
the
process,
they
would
want
that
number
to
be
bigger
rather
than
smaller.
So
the
answer
to
your
question
is
yes.
As
long
as
we're
meeting
1400,
we
are
in
compliance
with
the
agreement.
I
H
So
that
being
my
point,
I
think
that,
as
this
is
reviewed
and
thought
of
in
the
future,
we
don't
want
to
harm
ourselves
and
our
brand
and
the
paradise
that
we
live
in
by
continuing
to
pave
it
over.
And
so,
if
we're
satisfied
with
the
1412,
the
initiative
within
your
Narrative
of
increasing
spaces
may
not
be
the
wisest
thing.
We're
looking
forward
exactly
too
so
I
would
be
more
far
more
conservative
and
think
of
residents
first
and
how
this
island
moves
into
the
future
with
retaining
its
past.
A
H
G
All
right
good
morning,
my
name
is
Al
Browder
I'm,
one
of
the
vice
presidents
and
principals
at
Olson
Associates
we're
a
coastal
engineering
firm
in
Jacksonville
Florida
we've
been
working
with
town
at
Hilton
Head
for
several
decades,
dating
back
to
the
80s
Eric
may
say
actually
dating
back
to
the
70s
I,
don't
recall.
Normally
you'd
have
Chris
Creed
one
of
my
our
other
principals,
my
business
partner.
Here
he
he
was
out
of
the
country
and
couldn't
make
it
he
passes
along
his
hellos.
G
A
G
Doing
better
than
you
got
no
I'll
try
to
work
that
in
where
it's
appropriate.
There
are
a
few
really
similar
examples
to
the
program
that
you
have
here
that
that
we
have
implemented
in
other
areas
and
the
first
one
that
comes
to
mind
is
Amelia
Island,
the
South
Amelia
Island
area,
Amelia,
Island
Plantation,
it's
a
much
smaller
project,
that's
about
three
miles
of
Shoreline,
but
the
management
practice
is
very
much
the
same.
It's
predicated
on
beach,
nourishment
as
being
the
main
reason,
the
main
restoration
technique
and
maintenance
technique.
G
It
does
have
some
structural
improvements
where
erosion
rates
have
been
so
high
that
you
just
can't.
You
can't
keep
putting
sand
out
there
every
year
it
just
becomes
a
real
hassle
and
it's
very
expensive,
so
a
lot
of
them
are
done
much
the
same
way.
You
know
each
nourishment
is
sort
of
a
an
aesthetically
pleasing
soft
solution
to
Coastal
erosion.
But
again
there
are
areas
where
you
just
can't
keep
up
with
it
or
don't
want
to
afford
to
keep
up
with
it.
G
What's
it
what's
exposed,
what's
what's
at
stake
when
a
big
storm
comes
by
I'll,
get
into
that
in
a
couple
of
slides
here,
if
you
have
anything,
obviously
just
jump
in
and
ask
so
first
off
this
slide
is
intended
to
sort
of
represent
what
happens
on
the
island.
What
are
the
forces
that
you're
trying
to
hold
back
or
you're
trying
to
deal
with
here
on
Hilton
Head
Island?
It's
a
transgressive
Barrier
Island,
which
is
a
very
technical
way
of
saying
it's.
G
G
It's
primarily
wave
attack
from
from
the
Atlantic
ocean
sand
moves
both
ways
at
different
times
of
the
year,
but
in
the
net
on
average,
you
have
a
you,
have
a
pattern
of
wave
climbing
along
your
beach
that
causes
more
erosion
in
some
areas,
stability
in
others,
minor
erosion
and
others,
and
these
arrows
here
are
generally
meant
to
describe
the
big
picture.
Which
Way
sand
tends
to
move
in
an
erosional
process.
Unfortunately,
that's
that's.
G
Why
you're
here
fighting
this
issue
is
because
it
is
an
erosion
Beach,
as
you
closer
to
the
inlets,
but
Royal
sound
and
calibug
sound,
the
tidal
currents
have
an
effect
of
stripping
sand
or
moving
sand
to
and
fro
along
the
shoreline.
Usually
it
never
works
in
your
benefit.
It
usually
works
against
you
because
again
it's
a
rising
Rising
sea
level
and
the
tides
take
sand
away
and
deposit
them
in
the
deeper
areas
of
the
channels
and
out
on
the
shoals,
so
we'll
hit
these
areas
one
at
a
time
in
different
ways
as
we
go
through.
G
This
presentation,
I
I,
think
these
slides
ought
to
be
shown
in
every
Beach
presentation
you
have
from
now
to
the
rest
of
time,
because
this
is
the
most
important
thing
to
keep
in
mind.
It
is
an
erosional
Beach
and
before
you
folks
started
all
the
efforts
you've
put
in
in
the
last
several
decades.
This
is
what
it
looked
like
at
high
tide.
There
were
many
many
many
areas
along
Hilton
Head
that
didn't
have
any
recreational
Beach
at
all
and
even
areas
at
low
tide
that
did
not
have
any
dry
recreational
Beach
on
it.
G
This
is
sort
of
the
conditions
here
in
North,
Forest
beach
in
1990s
you'll
see
the
same
photo
that
Jeff
showed
earlier
some
other
areas
of
the
island
up
towards
the
Folly.
The
Folly
was
a
was
and
is
a
particularly
difficult
area
of
the
beach
to
maintain,
simply
because
of
the
way
waves
work
along
the
beach.
You
have
a
Divergent
area
of
Transport
that
carries
sand
away
from
the
Folly
in
Singleton.
Beach
area
carries
it,
South
carries
it
up
towards
the
heel,
but
nothing
carries
sand
towards
the
Folly
and
that's
why
the
Folly
stays
open.
G
G
So
you
have
to
try
to
live
with
where
the
water
wants
to
run
back
out
to
the
Atlantic
here,
and
you
can
see
how
they
were
dealing
with
it
back
in
the
early
90s
here
it
was
very
difficult
lots
of
structures
of
all
sorts
of
designs
and
types
I'm,
not
sure
that
one
in
the
lower
left
is
exactly
an
engineered
structure.
It
doesn't
particularly
look
like
one,
but
this
that's
what
you
deal
with
when
you
have
a
beach
that
is
done.
You
know,
different
areas
of
the
island
are
affected
in
different
ways.
G
Moving
around
the
corner
here
to
Port
Royal
sound.
Some
of
the
conditions
that
are
here
in
the
mid
90s
again
more
tidal
currents
affecting
the
shoreline
here,
does
get
some
wave
action,
but
a
lot
of
rock
revetments
a
lot
of
really
wet
high
tide,
beach,
sometimes
cases
of
even
wet
at
low
tide.
So
it's
a
very
difficult
eroded
condition
that
we
had
in
the
late
80s
and
early
90s,
just
a
little
bit
of
the
history
of
how
we
got
to
the
planning
parts
of
this.
G
G
The
monitoring
program
that
just
spoke
about
began
right
around
this
time
and
it
has
proven
to
be
sort
of
the
backbone
of
your
entire
Beach
management
management
situation.
It
gives
you
the
idea
how
to
quantify
what
your
problem
is
like
how
much
sand
do
you
need
to
place?
How
often
do
you
need
to
place
it?
If
you
don't
have
that
monitoring
data,
you're,
sort
of
shooting
blind
and
at
some
point
FEMA
or
even
your
own
counselor
you're,
going
to
say
what
are
we
doing
here?
G
You
know
we
don't
know
where
we
are
or
what
we're,
what
we're
really
up
against
in
a
quantitative
way
that
then
LED
right
into
the
first
major
feasibility
study
that
was
conducted
and
finished
in
87
to
determine
okay,
what's
the
best
path
forward
here
we
have
this
giant
elephant,
you
know
we
could
only.
We
can
only
eat
it,
one
bite
at
a
time.
How
do
we
do
that?
What's
the
best
plan
and
at
the
same
time
you
know
it
was
pretty
obvious
early
on
that.
What
you
wanted
to
do
was
put
the
beach
back.
G
G
All
of
that
feasibility
analysis
and
sediment
deficit
work
led
to
some
main
main
conclusions.
You
know
you
we
highlighted
in
the
map
where
the
erosional
areas
were
where
the
stable
areas
were.
Obviously,
you
got
some
areas
that
have
chronic
sediment
deficits
in
the
northern.
Two-Thirds
of
the
shoreline
unfortunately
fall
into
this
category.
There
are
the
areas
that
needed
the
attention
the
most
starting
back
in
the
late
80s
early
90s.
You
have
a
real
need,
obviously,
to
protect
Upland
infrastructure.
You
know
you
don't
want
you,
don't
want
houses
to
be
impacted.
G
G
You
know
property
members,
so
kind
of
a
mixed
bag
of
what
type
of
structure
you
have
from
one
property
to
the
next,
any
good
feasibility
study
it
went
through
and
categorized
what
would
happen
if
no
action
were
taken.
You
know,
based
on
the
prevailing
rates
of
erosion,
the
level
of
armoring
sea
level
rise,
those
items.
What
could
you
expect
in
various
time
frames
moving
forward?
None
of
that
news
was
good.
Obviously,
the
feasibility
study
also
talked
about
what
would
be
involved
if
the
town
facilitated
individual
Property
Owners
having
to
deal
with
each
parcel.
G
What
would
be
allowed?
What
wouldn't
be
where
the
development
lines
would
fall?
What
the
retreat
policies
would
be?
You
name
it.
You're
gonna
have
to
deal
with
every
little
parcel
individually,
not
not
a
happy
happy
time.
So,
ultimately,
the
feasibility
study
concluded
that
the
best
thing
to
do
was
for
the
town
to
take
a
very
comprehensive
big
scale
approach.
Most
things
in
Coastal
Engineering.
It
does
not
pay
to
go
small.
G
G
The
whole
thing
is
predicated
on
beach,
nourishment,
you
know
the
first
restoration
of
the
beach.
We
typically
call
Beach
restoration
and
it
is
maintained
in
the
future
with
beach
re-nourishment.
So
that's
the
maintenance
phase
of
it
and
that's
where
you
are
now
you're
in
the
maintenance
phase.
How.
G
In
your
case
dating,
is
you
have
to
go
100
years,
200
years,
300
years,
you
are
restoring
a
beach
that
I
assume
was
there
at
one
time.
This
is
kind
of
the
standard
terminology
that
we
used
the
first
time
you
do
one
and
you
go
from
the
revetments
and
the
no
dry
Beach
option.
You
are
restoring
the
beach.
That
is
the
beach
restoration
project.
G
You
have
put
it
back,
and
this
gets
to
the
13.5
million
cubic
yards
and
the
restoration
and
all
that
stuff
once
you've
done
the
first
one
and
you're
monitoring
it
and
you're
watching
how
it
behaves
the
next
time
you
do
it.
Seven,
eight
nine
ten
years
later,
you're
doing
a
re-nourishment.
Re-Nourishment
is
a
weird
word.
You
know
when
you
feed
yourself
every
day,
you're,
not
re-nourishing
yourself,
but
it's
just
a
particular
term
to
the
Coastal
Engineering
world.
G
What
you
do
your
maintenance,
the
bulk
of
your
maintenance,
is
accomplished
through
periodic
re-nourishment.
So
that's
just
sort
of
the
terminology
that
has
has
developed
over
the
years.
The
feasibility
study
identified
this
idea.
This
plan
that
you
would
conduct
a
large-scale
renourishment.
You
would
maintain
that
project
in
the
future
through
periodic
renourishment,
but
even
then
it
recognized
that
there
are
areas
of
the
shoreline
that
erode
at
far
too
high
of
a
rate
to
Simply
keep
up
with
by
placing
sand
out
there
you're
just
literally
just
dumping
it
in
the
ocean
and
it's
disappearing.
G
Obviously,
this
requires
a
lot
of
sand
and
one
of
the
big
big
items
you
talk
about
exposures,
every
project
anywhere
that
relies
on
beach
nourishment
the
sand
is
the
primary
exposure.
It's
the
primary
resource
that
you
have
to
keep
up
with.
You
have
to
know
where
you're
going
to
get
your
next
one
from
you
need
to
try
to
figure
out
what
your
near
Island
resources
are,
and
it's
all
a
matter
of
Economics
I
mean
if
you
have
to
go
20
miles
to
bring
your
sand
in
here,
you're
going
to
pay
the
premium
to
get
it.
G
If
you
have
sand
sources
that
are
close
by
your
Inlet
Shoals,
anything
offshore,
those
are
going
to
be
the
cheapest
ones.
So,
looking
for
those
economically
feasible
sand
sources
is
key,
and
that
will
that
would
be
an
ongoing
thing
that
we
manage
for
the
town.
That's
what
your
Consultants
do,
where's
the
sand
going
to
come
from
and
then
conserving
it.
We
spoke
about
the
total
volume
on
the
island
and
what
is
needed
to
maintain
the
beach.
How
often
do
we
have
to
renourishment
renourish?
It
excuse
me
and
that
gets
to
seeing
resource
conservation.
G
You
don't
want
to
make
it
a
whole
lot
bigger
than
it
is
now.
If
you
make
it
much
bigger
than
it
is
now
you're
moving
your
goal
posts
and
you're
increasing
the
amount
of
sand.
You'd
have
to
come
up
with
the
next
time,
and
so
you
just
start
chasing
it
farther
and
farther
and
farther
so.
Issues
like
the
line
of
development
become
very
important
like
don't
you
don't
want
to
make
it
any
bigger,
because
then
you
got
the
responsibility
of
maintaining
something,
that's
even
bigger.
So
that's
that's
always
a
key
thing.
G
Sand
resource
conservation
is
very
critical
to
any
Beach
restoration
project.
Jeff
mentioned
there
are
projects
in
Florida
where
they're
bringing
in
their
entire
Beach
projects
by
truck
from
100
miles
away.
It's
it's
very,
very
expensive
and
again
that
gets
to
controlling
the
the
seaward
advance
of
development.
You
know
you've
done
a
great
job
kind
of
holding
where
that
should
be,
because
you
don't
want
to
defend
more
and
more
and
more
and
then
the
last
item
that
was
talked
about
in
the
at
87
study
was
developing
the
sustainable
funding
source.
G
Obviously
this
costs
money,
and
so
the
funding
sources
that
were
set
up
by
the
town
originally
have
frankly,
they've
served
as
a
model
for
a
lot
of
other
communities
that
I
know
of
around
the
southeast.
Remember
because
we'll
go
look
at
Hilton
Head
and
see
what
they
did
and
how
much
they
charge
and
how
they
manage
it.
It's
been,
it's
been
a
really
good
easy
reference
for
me.
Just
go
see
what
Hilton
Head,
so
it's
been
a
really
good
way
of
providing
for
your
Beach
Management
program
over
the
years
benefits
of
the
island-wide
approach.
G
Jeff
touched
on
this,
so
I'll
just
go.
Go
through
this
pretty
quickly.
Unless
you
have
a
question.
Obviously
you
do
this
because
you
want
to
provide
protection
to
the
upload.
That's
the
primary
reason.
Anybody
builds
a
beach
Nursery
project,
you're,
tired
of
losing
houses,
infrastructure,
pool
decks,
pools
roads
pavement
whatever
you
name
it,
so
you,
the
the
beach,
provides
a
very
effective
buffer
from
storms
to
damage
to
the
Upland
sea
level
rise
is
another
reason
we
do
this
and
resiliency
of
the
whole
system.
G
Beaches
are
Dynamic,
shifting
moving
things
they
are
able
to
adapt
to
sea
level
rise,
they
are
able
to
see
oats
grow
and
they
trap
sand
so
they're
able
to
keep
up
with
a
certain
level
of
sea
level
rise
over
time.
The
next
big
reason
is
recreation
in
the
tourism
industry,
a
little
bit
of
a
little
bit
of
a
back
and
forth
there,
of
course,
but
that's
also
one
of
the
primary
reasons
people
build
beach.
Nourishment
projects
is
to
protect
the
recreational
amenity
value
of
their
soft
sandy
beaches.
G
If
you
don't
have
a
beach
at
high
tide,
not
too
many
tourists
want
to
go
to
to
a
place
like
that.
Obviously,
it
has
a
lot
of
environmental
benefits.
You've
created
sea
turtle,
nesting
habitat
where
you
had
very
little
back
in
the
80s
and
we're
losing
habitat,
that's
always
good
for
the
environment.
It's
also
good
for
the
town's
PR
program
and
everybody
involved.
The
last
thing
here:
FEMA
the
project
itself
is
a
piece
of
the
town's
infrastructure.
G
So
there's
like
any
other
piece
of
infrastructure
if
it's
damaged
in
a
declared
event,
it's
eligible
for
some
cost-sharing
assistance
to
repair
that
damage
I
have
another
slide,
I'll
touch
again
on
the
FEMA
part,
but
it's
been
a
real
key
element
to
what
has
happened
here
on
Hilton
Head
storm
damages
from
Matthew
and
Irma
and
Joaquin
they've
been
covered.
You've
gotten
you've
gotten
a
lot
of
financial
assistance
restoring
that
damage.
They
don't
restore
things
that
weren't
built
and
engineered
to
begin
with,
but
they
do
repair.
Storm
damages
to
engineered
infrastructure.
G
Jeff
touched
on
the
the
project
activity
here:
1990
was
the
original
Beach
restoration
that
put
the
beach
back.
It
was
a
very
large
project
and
then
there
have
been
three
renourishments
since
then,
and
we're
gearing
up
for
the
fourth
one
in
the
interim,
there
have
been
several
smaller
projects
that
have
Arisen
as
the
beach
has
evolved
in
particular
ways
along
the
shoreline.
Small
emergency
Beach
fill,
but
not
a
recurring
thing
is
always
a
good
thing
to
look
at.
G
Can
you
fix
it
and
get
back
to
the
normal
schedule
and
structure
structures
that
have
been
built
along
Port
Royal,
sound
structures
that
have
been
built
at
the
heel,
which
was
a
particularly
original
area?
All
of
these
things
have
sort
of
been
been
done
to
cut
down
on
the
loss
of
sand,
so
we
can
manage
sand
resources
and
get
everything
on
a
regular
routine
basis
as
best
as
possible,
which
allows
you
to
financially
plan
for
it.
G
Otherwise,
you
just
pulling
your
hair
out
and
spending
money
every
year
and
you're
like
some
of
the
some
of
the
areas
that
we
typically
pay
a
good
bit
of
attention
to
in
terms
of
management.
Again,
the
the
items
in
purple
or
magenta
are
structures
that
have
been
built
to
lower
erosion
rates
in
particular
areas.
Areas
in
yellow
are
your
engineered,
Beach
and
dunes.
The
word
engineered
Beach
is
a
FEMA
term.
We
use
it
when
we're
talking
about
FEMA.
That's
the
term.
G
G
It
will
all
if
it's
constructed
by
the
town,
you're
the
you're,
the
public
applicant,
that
will
also
be
in
the
club,
so
to
speak
for
FEMA
protection
in
the
event
of
storm
damage
up
there
you're
getting
pretty
far
away
from
the
waves
up
at
that
point,
so
you
may
not
be
as
as
at
risk
for
that
piece
of
Shoreline
up
there,
as
you
might
be
out
on
the
ocean
front,
but
you're
still
exposed
to
a
lot
of
tidal
current
action.
Import
Royal
sound,
Beach
monitoring.
G
This
is
just
some
additional
detail
of
the
beach
monitoring
program
that
started
in
the
mid
80s.
It's
probably
the
best
one
out
there.
It's
been
going
since
the
mid
80s.
It
is
a
wonderful
source
of
data,
I,
don't
know
of
anyone
who
could
argue
that
the
information
when
you
tell
people
what
the
erosion
rates
are
or
what
the
history
of
this
place
is
it's
locked
down.
The
answer
has
been
questioned.
The
question
has
been
answered.
Excuse
me,
but
the
ongoing
monitoring
is
what
allows
us
to
highlight
to
FEMA
how
you
were
managing
the
beach.
G
G
Okay,
this
is
the
slide
I
wanted
to
mention
about
kind
of
where
we
are
and
whatnot.
This
is
a
beach
profile
up
along
North
Forest
Beach,
it's
kind
of
right
in
the
middle
sort
of
the
typical
of
what
happens
again.
It's
a
kind
of
an
exaggerated
stretch,
scale
Rock
revetment,
like
we
saw
in
the
pictures
earlier,
and
what
the
condition
of
the
of
the
beach
was,
and
this
particular
profile
in
1986.
G
So
this
area
here
between
the
black
and
the
blue,
come
back
to
me
here
got
some
Dune
growth
here,
vegetated
looks
very
picturesque.
You
saw
the
pictures,
but
the
bulk
of
the
sand,
the
13.5
million
cubic
yards
that
you're
talking
about
is
in
this
area
here
between
the
black
and
the
blue.
So,
in
other
words,
it
it
took
13
and
a
half
million
cubic
yards
I
mean
you
have
a
very
long
beach
project
here
to
put
the
nice
Beach
back
to
restore
the
beach.
So
that's
2016,
pre-project
2016,
post
project.
G
We
push
it
out.
Another
100
150
feet
in
front
of
that.
So
you
have
sort
of
this.
This
Baseline
Beach
of
your
13
and
a
half
million,
or
whatever
the
exact
number
is
every
year.
You
always
want
to
have
it
out
there.
That's
your
design,
Beach!
That's
what
provides
protection
to
the
Upland
in
case
the
big
one
comes
and
you're
at
the
end
of
a
re-nourishment
cycle
like
we
were
in
2016,
then
in
2016
we
re-nourished
the
beach.
We
know
that
it
erodes
every
year
it's
a
sacrificial
process.
G
That's
part
of
the
deal
that
you
accept
in
your
Beach
Management
program,
because
otherwise
your
options
aren't
to
like
armor
the
whole
Beach
or
build
structures
everywhere,
which
is
not
a
very
aesthetic
thing.
It's
enormously
expensive
up
front,
so
the
life
cycle
costs
then
become
very
expensive
as
well,
and
you
still
probably
want
to
nurse
the
beach
on
top
of
it.
G
So
the
idea
that
you
have
a
design
beach
in
the
in
the
back
so
to
speak,
that
always
stays
in
good
health
and
good
condition,
and
then
you
periodically
renourish
it
as
sort
of
an
advanced
payment
on
the
erosion.
That's
the
game
plan.
That's
what
we
do!
That's
what
we've
been
doing
here
for
the
last
three
or
four
Cycles
we're
getting
ready
to
do
it
again,
so
you
can
see
here
as
a
as
a
whole
thing
by
April
of
2022.
G
We've
moved
from
the
red,
slowly,
retreating
back
to
the
solid
black
line,
but
you
still
have
all
the
storm
protection
in
the
back
here
so
that
April
22.
You
know
we're
in
really
good
condition
to
withstand
the
impacts
from
a
storm
event:
you're
not
going
to
lose
all
13
and
a
half
million
in
one
storm.
That's
just
not!
G
G
So
this
is
about
right.
Now
it's
about
400
feet
on
average,
when
you
go
out
and
you
look
at
all
the
beach
profiles
in
the
monitoring
program-
and
you
say:
here's
the
Upland
line
of
development.
Here's
a
mean
high
water
line.
You
have
about
400
feet.
You
need
to
maintain
a
little
over
200
feet,
almost
all
the
time,
so
that,
if
you
had
bad
luck
and
got
hit
by
that
storm
event
at
the
wrong
time,
you
still
wouldn't
see
much
of
any
damage
in
the
Upland.
All
the
Upland
infrastructure
would
be
protected.
G
G
This
is
in
2007,
even
no
Rock
preventment
to
be
seen
here
at
all.
It's
there.
It's
been
buried
in
the
dunes
in
the
Upland
and
you
get
a
feel
for
when
they
run
the
beach
Nursery
projects.
I,
don't
know
if
you've
witnessed
some
of
the
beach
nourishment
going
on
in
Prior
Cycles,
but
you
know
they're
pumping
sand
down
the
beach
really
not
working.
For
me.
G
This
pipe
coming
down
the
beach
here
makes
a
mess
when
they're
when
they're
doing
it,
but
they
keep
it
in
their
little
work
area
and
then
they
clean
it
all
up
and
they
Advance
down
the
beach.
So
you
can
see
here
just
how
far
the
beach
gets
Advanced.
This
is
the
1990
Shoreline
look
pre-1990,
Shoreline
location,
so
up
under
that
red
line
is
where
the
rock
revetments
and
all
the
stabilization
was
no
Drive
each.
Now
you
have
this
nice
protective
buffer
and
recreational
space
out
in
front
there's
some
pictures
of
the
pre.
G
G
It
would
take
a
lot
to
expose
that
thing,
but
if
it
were
to
be
exposed,
it
would
continue
to
function
as
an
excellent
backstop
to
the
loss
of
the
loss
of
the
Upland
infrastructure
and
really
what
it's
doing
is
preventing
deflation
like
if
you're
you
know,
if
you
own
an
oceanfront
property,
keeps
your
yard
from
dropping
out
and
into
the
water
or
your
pool
deck
or
your
parking
area
or
whatever.
So
it's
not
active,
so
it's
not
actively
providing
production
today,
but
you
know
still
back
there
still
in.
In
the
event,
things
go
really
Haywire.
G
G
We
use
the
monitoring
data
to
keep
track
of
shorelines
and
volumes
what's
happening
where
I'm
not
going
to
get
into
much
more
of
this
I
was
kidding
about
the
quiz,
but
the
thing
I
want
to
draw
your
eye
to
here
are
the
red
and
green
bars,
because
you'll
see
areas
in
red
and
you'll
see
areas
in
green.
This
is
a
pretty
stable
area,
South
Forest
Beach
heading
down
into
Sea
Pines.
Historically,
it's
been
a
very
stable
area.
G
G
Areas
up
here,
heading
north
of
the
Folly
are
typically
stable,
and
then
we
get
issues
around
the
hill
and
depending
on
what
those
conditions
are
the
next
time
we
go
to
renourishment.
These
will
be
the
areas
we
focus
on
as
to
whether
we
do
something
or
not.
This
is
one
of
the
ways
we
we
don't
want
to
go
out
there
and
just
paste
sand
everywhere,
because
you're
just
wasting
it
and
spending
a
lot
of
money
again.
G
Some
of
the
structures
that
have
been
built
along
the
way
here
I'll
go
through
this
pretty
quickly,
one
of
the
examples
up
up
by
fish,
Hall
Creek
in
Fishman,
Park,
very
sensitive
bird
habitat
area
up
there,
but
also
an
area
that's
popular
for
use
for
Beach
use.
So
there
was
a
need
to
kind
of
split
the
difference
here,
not
build
an
enormous
Beach
and
maintain
it
in
a
traditional
way
stabilize
it.
So
we
wouldn't
have
to
re-nourish
it
very
often.
G
So
we
came
up
with
a
series
of
six
low-crested
breakwaters
that
would
hold
the
shoreline
in
a
particular
position.
The
breakwaters
themselves
provide
a
form
of
habitat,
but
they
also
protect
kind
of
a
marshy
area
up
there,
it's
very
popular
with
Shorebirds.
So
this
is
just
an
example
of
some
of
the
structural
interventions,
innovations
that
have
been
done
to
try
to
hold
the
erosion
and
and
keep
the
environmental
balance
in
check.
G
It's
a
pretty
common
thing
that
happens
in
a
lot
of
inlets,
so
the
idea
was
to
move
that
marginal
Channel,
get
things
away
from
the
shoreline
move
them
back
out
towards
the
main
Channel
going
through
Port
Royal,
sound
title
inlets
will
draw
water
in
from
all
directions,
and
usually
when
that
happens,
they
create
their
own
little
side
channels
and
they
usually
never
seem
to
happen
in
a
very
convenient
place
so
periodically.
This
was
just
one
that
was
causing
so
much
erosion
that
we
needed
to
step
in
and
intervene
cut.
G
The
channel
in
a
new
location
took
the
sand
that
was
dredged
out
of
that
process.
Put
it
on
the
beach
directly
to
restore
the
Port
Royal
Shoreline
here,
so
it's
kind
of
a
win-win
in
that
regard
took
the
tidal
pressure
off
of
the
off
the
shoreline,
a
couple
of
other
structured
projects,
the
terminal
going
at
the
Folly.
Again
we
talked
about
the
Folly,
it's
a
drainage
area.
It
has
to
break
out
to
the
to
the
ocean
periodically.
G
But
it's
like
this
giant
Meandering
thing
that
was
beginning
to
impact
structures
and
the
erosion
rate
was
so
high
that
we
couldn't
really
keep
up
with
the
beach
adjacent
to
the
outlet.
So
we've
stabilize
one
side
of
it
now
participating
in
the
beach
nourishment
program
solve
the
solve
the
problem
there
and
greatly
lowers
the
overall
erosion
rate
in
that
spot,
fish
Hall
break
Waters.
We
talked
about
previously
there's
a
little
shot
of
them.
You
can
see
that
they've
they've
sort
of
grown
and
collected
their
their
own
little
marshy
seagrass
habitat
around
that
area.
G
The
Lands
End
terminal
groin,
is
another
example
down
in
the
South
End.
That
structure
had
degraded
and
was
actually
just
bleeding
sand
to
the
north
and
up
into
the
channel,
then
the
biggest
one
probably
is
at
the
heel.
That
thing
that
structure
that
was
built
in
2012
solved
a
couple
problems
both
on
the
poor,
Royal
Shoreline
and
the
Atlantic
facing
Shoreline
to
lower
the
erosion
rates
in
that
area.
It's
been
very
successful
in
keeping
the
rates
down
and
keeping
them
on
track
with
the
rest
of
the
island.
G
Recent
activities
I
think
Jeff,
touched
on
most
of
these
the
beach
management
line.
We
talked
about
that
in
your
your
upcoming
renewal
of
the
beach
management
plan.
Setting
the
line
and
not
allowing
development
to
continue
to
encroach
out
seaward
is
the
way
to
go.
You're
saving
yourself
from
increasing
costs.
As
you
go
along
a
lot
of
efforts
to
support
the
remapping
that
was
done
for
the
flood
insurance
rate
maps
on
the
island.
G
These
are
just
some
of
the
active
other
activities
that
we've
participated
in
over
the
years
with
the
town
documenting
the
scope
of
your
your
engineered
Beach
and
your
structures.
These
again
are
infrastructure
that
are
eligible
for
cost
sharing
from
FEMA.
In
the
event,
they're
damaged
and
we've
unfortunately
have
suffered
some
damage
over
the
years.
G
Joaquin
Matthew,
Irma,
Dorian
football
town
has
recouped
quite
a
bit
of
money.
Over
the
years
again,
Jeff
mentioned
the
storm.
Damages
are
typically
restored
at
75
percent,
so
you're
paying
25
cents
on
the
dollar
to
repair
the
storm
damage
portion
of
it.
The
special
studies
we've
talked
about
a
way
here.
I'll
talk
very
briefly
about
sand
resources.
As
I
mentioned,
one
of
your
continuing
exposures
is
always
having
available
sand
resources.
That's
a
very
important
thing
to
keep
up
with.
G
These
are
just
some
of
the
main
areas
very
close
to
Shore
that
have
been
used
in
past
projects
to
provide
sand
for
Beach
nourishment.
The
first
project
was
built
for
jointer
Shoals
and
Gaskin
Banks,
and
now
lately,
we've
moved
to
Barrett
Shoals
off
a
cowboy,
sound
and
Bay
Point
Shoals.
You
know,
unfortunately,
if
you
use
them,
they
don't
necessarily
always
regenerate.
They
may
not
fill
back
in
with
materials
that
you
want
to
pump
on
the
beach
again,
but
Barrett
Shoals,
Joiner
and
vape
point
in
particular.
G
A
G
And
this
slide
speaks
to
that.
These
are
this
is
an
example
of
some
of
the
analytical
products
that
get
produced
when
we
do
what
we
call
Sand
search
as
sort
of
a
generic
term
for
for
going
out
and
doing
a
geotechnical
survey
to
figure
out
where
we
have
good
beach
compatible
sand,
because
a
lot
of
areas
of
the
seabed
offshore
of
any
place
is
usually
very
poor
stuff.
You
would
not
want
to
pump
on
the
beach
mud,
silk
clay
really
Shelly
stuff,
so
you
have
to
be
very
particular
about
where
you
go.
G
Where
you
look,
you
know,
you're
looking
for
high
spots,
you're
looking
for
energetic
areas
that
have
Flushed
Away,
the
mud
and
the
silt,
and
this
and
I
don't
want
to
explain
every
one
of
these
things,
but
this
is
kind
of
what
Jeff
was
talking
about.
We
direct
the
sand
search.
We
we
working
with
Jeff
and
the
folks
of
the
town.
We
work
on
hiring
subcontractors
who
have
the
necessary
equipment
to
go
out,
take
core
borings.
This
is
an
Alpine
rig.
G
It
takes
a
20
foot,
long
punch
into
the
seabed
and
every
one
of
these
dots.
This
is
Zach's
job
every
one
of
these
dots
is
one
of
these
cores,
so
you
have
20
feet
of
the
strata
in
the
seabed
and
we
can
tell
where
there's
clay
and
junk
and
whatever
we
don't
want,
and
we
can
see
where
we
have
good
nice,
clean
material
that
we
do
want,
and
so
you
get
air.
G
You
get
maps
like
these,
where
I'm
having
trouble
with
this
we've
gone
out
and
punched
all
these
holes
here
and
we've
evaluated
how
much
good
sand
is
there
on
the
top
layer
of
sand?
What
we
need
for
the
project
we
try
to
match
those
two
volumes
up.
We
don't
want
to
go
out
and
let
the
dredger
just
go
willy-nilly
and
dredge
wherever
they
want
to.
That's,
not
gonna
work
good
for
anyone.
G
We
give
them
very
specific
directions
about
how
deep
they
can
cut,
because,
usually
what
happens
if
they
cut
too
deep,
they
get
into
undesirable
material.
We
we
call
all
of
that
and
we
take
the
report.
We
turn
it
into
the
state
the
core,
and
we
say
this
is
our
Geotech.
This
is
what
we
want
to
dredge
State
lands
issues.
You
know
this
is
all
you
know:
lands
owned
by
the
state
of
South
Carolina,
so
they
get
reviewed.
But
we
do
all
of
the
of
the
work
to.
G
Usually,
very
long
when
you
get
around
an
inlet
you're
going
to
want
to
watch
like
this
is
a
good
example.
The
upper
left
image
here.
This
is
Port
Royal,
sound,
I'm.
Sorry,
my
vision's
getting
in
areas
around
inlets
will
be
the
ones
that
are
most
dynamic.
The
shoals
will
shift.
If
the
shoals
will
change,
you
know
we
don't.
G
So
it's
just
depends
on
where
you're
at
the
way
you
address
that,
is
you
just
go
out
and
Survey
it?
You
just
do
a
conventional
hydrographic
survey
and
say
well:
the
trolls
haven't
changed.
We
took
this
course
in
2006.
we're
good.
You
know
you
don't
want
to
find
out.
You
don't
want
to
find
out
the
answer
to
that
question
when
the
dredge
is
going
and
it's
pumping
stuff
on
the
beach
and
then
it's
like
that's
not
a
good
time
to
find
out
that
things
have
changed.
Never
good.
G
Clearly,
these
guys,
like
the
guys
who
take
the
course
they're
a
sub
the
people
who
do
the
surveys,
they
have
the
right
equipment
they
that
we
sub
contract
down
to
them
to
take
these
data.
This
image
in
the
lower
left
by
the
way,
is
a
sub
bottom
image.
They
put
ground,
it's
like
ground,
penetrating
radar,
but
you
use
it
in
the
water.
So
it'll
tell
you
what
the
layers
look
like,
underneath
to
give
you
a
really
good
picture
of
where
you're
going
to
have
a
problem.
G
That's
because
there's
something
nasty
under
there
that
they
don't
want
to
get
into
same
process,
we'll
go
through
and
do
magnetometer
surveys
make
sure,
there's
nothing
metal
like
a
shipwreck
or
a
boat
motor
or
something
in
the
area.
To
avoid
that,
some
of
it
could
be
culturally
significant
that
gets
handled
through
a
specific
subcontractor
with
us
to
make
sure
we
don't
have
any
avoidance
areas
we
need
to
steer
clear
of,
and
there
are
cultural
resource
areas
everywhere.
G
So
that's
a
pretty
common
thing
to
have
to
deal
with,
but
that's
sort
of
the
the
way
the
sausage
is
made
to
get
to
a
beach
nourishment
project
and
make
sure
that
what
ends
up
on
the
beach
is
what
you
want,
because
two
years
later,
when
the
Project's
done,
the
only
thing
people
are
going
to
see
is
what
you
actually
pumped
on
the
beach
and
if
it
doesn't
look
good,
then
something's
gone
wrong.
So.
A
You
know
I'm
just
thinking
that
this
presentation,
which
is
excellent,
a
Reader's
Digest
version-
if
you
ask
the
rhetorical
question:
where
could
we
use
this
in
a
fun
productive
way?
I
I
would
think
of
a
I
were
a
high
schooler.
This
could
be
fun,
but
if
I
were
running
the
real
estate
group
here,
this
would
be.
G
We
we
try
and
and
I've
talked
Chris
and
I've
talked
about.
This
is
the
sort
of
the
public
out
public
Outreach
portions
of
these
projects
is,
is
getting
better
and
better
and
better
as
we
go
along,
I
mean
the
more
the
more
you
can
explain
these
things
to
people
in
a
simple
way:
the
less
headaches
you
have
when
construction
comes,
because
your
phone
will
start
ringing.
What
are
they
doing
in
front
of
my
house?
You
know
the
more
the
more
education
you
can
put
out
there
and
the
simpler
you
can
do
it.
G
G
They
know
what
a
beach
nourishment
project
is,
so
they
know
what
to
expect,
and
they
know
you
know
that
while
it's
going
on
you're
going
to
hear
a
bunch
of
backup,
beepers
and
you're
going
to
see
an
area
of
the
beach,
that's
closed
off
that
you
can't
access,
but
it's
all
part
of
making
the
beach
look
good
for
10
years.
You
know
before
you
have
to
do
it
again,
so
yeah,
it's
a
it's
a
anything
for
public
Outreach.
G
Outreach
is
always
a
well
intentioned
and
well
useful
thing
very
useful
thing,
I'll
just
kind
of
screw
through
the
rest
of
these
here.
Obviously,
our
goal
and
I've
talked
about
this.
A
lot
is
we
want
to
get
the
project
on
an
eight
to
ten
year
life,
because
mobilizing
a
dredge
is
a
very
expensive
process.
Bringing
all
the
equipment
out
here
is
very
disruptive,
but
it's
a
short
period
of
time.
G
One
of
the
things
we
do
in
every
project
and
becomes
more
and
more
important.
Every
time
we
do
it
is
limiting
sand
placement
to
only
those
areas
that
really
need
it.
You
know
you
have
great
sand
resources
which
you're,
certainly
not
in
a
position
to
just
you
know,
go
paint
the
beach
with
200
cubic
yards
per
foot
everywhere.
You
want
to
you're
not
going
to
do
that,
you're
going
to
try
to
be
very
strategic
about
it.
Where
you
put
this.
G
This
is
an
example
of
the
map
for
the
elements
in
2016,
where
we
did
and
did
not
Place
sand
on
the
beach
in
various
areas,
and
you
can
see
that
it's
pretty
targeted,
South,
Beach
central
island,
a
couple
of
areas
around
the
hill
to
touch
up
around
that
structure
and
then
a
few
small
areas
up
in
Port,
Royal
sound.
You
can
see
the
the
borrow
areas
in
blue.
G
This
is
just
a
example
of
what
the
process
looks
like
on
the
borrow
area
in
down
to
California
sound
on
bare
Shoals.
You
can
see
the
cutter
head
dredge
here.
This
is
great
lake
stretch
and
dock
go
working
in
the
in
the
borrow
area.
You
can
see
their
floating
hose
coming
out,
the
back
that
allows
them
to
move
around
within
the
bar
area.
It's
like
a
giant
vacuum
cleaner
with
teeth,
so
it's
just
sucking
up
sand.
It
stays
out
there.
G
The
entire
project,
pumping
sand
to
the
beach
and
I
think
they
had
over
some
ridiculous
number
of
miles
of
pipeline
out
to
get
to
the
central
portion
of
the
island
to
deliver
the
sand.
That
was
determined
to
be
the
best
stuff
to
put
on
the
beach
here.
So
you
get
an
idea
of
the
scope.
It's
a
lot
of
equipment,
it's
a
big
time
operation
to
get
one
of
these
dredges
out
here.
G
13
and
a
half
million
cubic
yards
that
works
out
to
over
14
miles
about
180
cubic
yards
per
foot
of
Shoreline
per
foot,
180
cubic
yards,
a
dump
truck,
carries
15
cubic
yards,
so
you
can
kind
of
see
how
many
dump
trucks
of
sand
are
on
every
it's
not
everywhere,
but
this
is
the
big,
the
big
average,
the
big
picture
average,
and
so
we
talked
about
that
number.
That
is
part
of
your
infrastructure,
so
we're
there
to
be
a
really
bad
storm
event
that
cut
way
back.
G
You
know
beyond
the
2016
project
back
into
the
older
projects
that
would
still
be
eligible
for
FEMA
reimbursement.
You
have
ample
documentation.
That
proves
that
this
was
an
engineered
Beach.
It
was
built
that
way
it
would
take
one
heck
of
a
blow
to
kick
it
back
that
far
so
I
wouldn't
I.
Don't
want
to
panic
anybody
here,
but
that's
that's
not
going
to
happen,
but
that
that's
what
it
took
to
put
the
beach
back
in
a
big
enough
size
to
have
what
you
have
now
to
have
a
nice
Green
Field.
G
That's
now
vegetated
to
have
a
nice
recreational
Beach,
that's
dry
over
the
course
of
the
entire
title
cycle
and
to
provide
an
adequate
level
of
storm
protection
to
the
Upland.
Even
when
the
big
one
comes
at
the
end
of
the
renourishment
cycle,
it
takes
13
and
a
half
million
cubic
yards
I
might
be
off
by
a
million
here
or
there
somewhere
at
its
minimum.
G
You
know
we're
trying
to
maintain
a
beach-
that's
at
least
200
feet
wide
everywhere,
so
that
we
have
that
minimum
level
of
storm
protection
compared
to
1990,
where
you
had
the
Rock
revetments
and
such
it's
been
80
million
dollars
since
1990.
So
that's
a
lot
of
money,
but
when
you
consider
what
it's
protecting
over
8
billion
ballpark
8
billion
dollars
in
Short
Pump
development
values,
if
you
do
that
once
every
10
years,
you
know
you're
you're
in
pretty
good
stead.
That's
a
pretty
good,
pretty
good
trade-off!
G
Again,
here's
the
quiz
no
just
kidding
when
we
go
to
do
the
next
one
in
2025.
This
is
what
we're
beginning
to
plan
now
we're
going
to
get
into
the
permitting
again
we're
going
to
address
only
the
areas
that
particularly
need
need
addressing
that'll
at
this
point
we'll
be
areas
along
South,
Beach,
the
central
island
and
the
heel.
G
Enough,
there's
probably
this
is
you-
know,
kind
of
sets
itself
up
to
be
a
cutter
head
pipeline
dredge.
There
may
be
four
four
to
five
that
could
bid
on
this
project.
So
it's
a
it's
a
very
unique
Market.
Not
many
people
have
the
equipment
that
is
ocean
going.
They
can
go
out
here
and
do
this
so
it's
they
know.
They
know
this
project,
they
know
every
other
project.
They
know
what
what
their
competition
is
doing.
It's
a
very
limited
group
that
does.
G
G
We
try
typically
I,
don't
know,
maybe
a
year
out,
give
them
a
really
good
overview
like
we'll
presented
at
a
conference
or
something
or
we'll
send
them
the
abstract
of
a
report
or
something
that
says,
hey,
keep
in
mind.
2025,
there's
going
to
be
a
really
nice
project
here
we
also
I
mean
frankly,
I'll,
be
honest.
We
we
go
out
of
our
way
to
make
the
projects
as
simple
as
we
can
attractive
as
we
can
so
that
all
of
them
want
to
bid
on
it.
G
You
know
we
don't
try
to
burden
the
project
with
a
bunch
of
bureaucratic
stuff.
If
we
can
help
it,
you
know
we
don't
ask
them
to
do
weird
things
unless
it's
absolutely
necessary,
because
it's
expense,
it's
just
additional
equipment,
time
and
and
expense.
So
we
try
to
make
the
projects
as
attractive
as
possible,
and
we
give
them
plenty
of
lead
time
to
to
do
things
now.
For
an
example,
Hurricane
Sandy
in
2012
hit
the
entire
basically
hit
the
entire
east
coast
of
the
U.S
that
just
trashed
the
dredging
Market
I
mean
it.
G
D
D
G
G
We
did
this
in
the
last
one.
We
had
to
kind
of
stage
where
we
get
to
build
what
part
of
the
beach,
but
we
try
to
do
it
in
such
a
way
that
you
know,
avoids
the
peak
of
the
tourist
season
and
avoids
the
interruptions
to
the
extent
it's
possible,
but
letting
people
know
what's
going
on
and
why,
with
adequate
lead
time
is
always.
You
know
very,
very
helpful,
very
helpful,
we're
maintaining
a
website
email
blasts.
G
D
D
I
I
know
that's
a
very
challenging
area,
but
at
the
same
time
the
wildlife
in
that
area
remains.
Okay,
I've
seen
the
Folly
kind
of
change
to
a
degree,
but
the
fishing
and
crabbing
everything
is
still
good
there.
So
I
am
concerned
about
the
new
beach
as
we
get
into
Mitchellville
and
further
up
as
far
as
Hilton
implantation
is
concerned.
I
Yes,
it
is
recreational
for
beachgoers,
but
it's
also
a
recreational
for
folks
that
are
looking
to
clam
and
that
sort
of
thing.
Okay,
so
the
more
sand
we
put
there,
the
less
likely
we'll
have
clam
and
those
type
of
shellfish.
In
that
area,
so
just
be
mindful
of
that,
and
the
other
is-
and
this
is
not
necessarily
on
the
topic
of
Beach
management,
but
this
is
resiliency
is
where
I'm
going
here
right.
I
I
think
this
beach
Management
program
speaks
to
resiliency
and
when
you
start
to
to
think
about
the
fact
that
we
are
channeling
all
of
our
storm
water
and
drainage,
towards
the
center
of
the
island,
okay
to
Broad
Creek,
not
to
the
beach.
It
just
starts
to
to
question
the
amount
of
investment.
In
my
mind:
okay,
80
million.
D
David
yeah
Alex
made
me
think
of
this
example.
When
I
was
developing
Long
Cove,
we
were
digging
lagoons
and
we
hit
a
strata
of
old
oyster
shells
and
clams,
and
so
on
that
were
about
that
big
and
they're,
probably
10,
to
15
feet
below
what
our
water
line
is.
Today
we
were
estimating
that
it
was
probably
15
000
years
ago,
but
I'm
just
I,
don't
know
if
that's
accurate.
A
D
B
Us
what
we
should
do,
I
thought
I,
should
ask
I
just
wanted
to.
Similarly
what
we
expressed
during
Mr
Lennox
last
committee
meeting.
This
is
your
last
committee
meeting
with
us
as
staff,
and
we
really
really
appreciate
everything
and
your
guidance
and
Leadership
that
you've
provided
to
all
of
us
and
to
the
community
and
we're
sad
to
see
you
go
but
understand
and
wish
you
all
the
best
in
everything
that
you
take
on
next
and.
