Regional Beach Restoration and Monitoring in San Diego County: A 10-Year Retrospective
The Regional Beach Sand Project, conducted by the San Diego Association of Governments in 2001, provided 1.6 million cubic meters of beach-quality sand to twelve receiver sites. Beach profile survey results were used to assess the shorezone changes and document the evolution of the San Diego County's beaches following the placement of the nourishment material. The analysis focused primarily on changes in shoreline position and sediment volume. The placement and subsequent dispersal of the beach nourishment material produced shoreline advances and sediment volume gains, some of which that have persisted to this day. Equally important, the RBSP demonstrated that San Diego County and its coastal cities can collaborate to implement a successful regional beach nourishment project.
