Table No. 1 lists the areas which would be <br />considered for emergency permit issuance for beach scraping. <br />Tabla No 12 Potantlal Raaoh Seraninc Areas <br />LOCATION <br />Length of <br />Comments <br />End -loader <br />Shoreline <br />$270/day <br />Treasure Shores Park <br />300 ft. <br />Lost 10-15 ft of Dune. <br />$540/day <br />Repairs required to dune <br />crossover. <br />Golden Sands Park <br />600 ft. <br />Lost 10-15 ft of Dune. <br />Repairs required to dune <br />crossover. <br />Wabasso Beach Park & <br />300 ft. & <br />Lost 10-15 ft of Dune. <br />Summerplace <br />500 ft. <br />Unprotected property <br />severely eroded. <br />Other areas of the County were severely eroded as well, however, the <br />lack of sand in the system would not warrant beach scraping activity at <br />this time. <br />The majority of the areas listed in Table No. 1 are reported as areas of <br />"critical erosion" in the County's Beach Preservation Plan and are <br />recommended for a beach restoration project during the fall of the year <br />2000.
