History of Erosion and Erosion Control Efforts at Tybee Island, Georgia

Pages : 122
Book Description
Tybee Island is a barrier island located immediately south of the mouth of the Savannah River. Natural processes and modifications introduced by man have promoted a complex history of shoreline evolution which has important implications for other 'developed' barrier islands. Periodic reorientation of the shoreline has caused a history of localized erosion and localized protection efforts. This has resulted in the sequential construction of numerous groins, seawalls, and revetments, in addition to periodic beach nourishment activities. Each of these efforts is analyzed and presented along with a review of the various engineering and geologic studies which have been conducted over the last 50 years. The current status of erosion and erosion control efforts is presented. Recommendations are also offered. Keywords: Beach erosion; Shore protection; Coast changes; Coastal engineering.

Book Description
This report presents the findings of a task force review of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Shoreline Protection and Beach Erosion Control Program. The assessment of the program was in response to Fiscal Year 1994 "Passback Language" from the Office of Management and Budget. The report responds to concerns about the shoreline protection program, particularly concerning costs, benefits, environmental effects and the related influences on shoreline development. The study was performed in two phases. The initial phase was completed in January 1994 and published as IWR Report 94-PS-1, Shoreline Protection and Beach Erosion Control Study. Phase I: Cost Comparison of Shoreline Protection Projects of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The purpose of the first phase report was to provide early input to the Office of the Management and Budget regarding the scope and cost of Federal Civil Works shore protection. This second and final phase of the study incorporates: additional analysis of project costs and sand emplacements; and overview of risk management in the coastal zone; a comparison of actual versus anticipated benefits; a discussion on environmental considerations; and an analysis of any induced development effects associated with the Federal shore protection and beach erosion control program. Also, included is a summary of study findings and conclusions. The basis of this report and the data compiled by the task force reflects conditions as of 1 July 1993.
