Evaluation of a Shoreline Erosion Control Project
An experimental structure for controlling shoreline erosion was built by District 05. The structure, a combination of groins and sills, was built of 5 by 10 foot plastic coated nylon sandbags that were filled in place. The bags and the material from which they are made were generally satisfactory. Several problems with the design of the structure and with the construction technique were encountered and are described. These problems prevented satisfactory completion of the structure, and for that reason, no evaluation of the sand trapping and energy dissipating characteristics of the structure could be made. The environmental impact of this installation was evaluated and was found to be insignificant in the time frame represented by this project. The methods used to accomplish the impact study are described and the results reported.
