C. Experience—Coastalbrero Beach is designated by the FDEP’s Bureau of Beaches and Coastal Systems as a critically erodedbeach. The dune was suffering from erosion from storms and storm surge and had no sand restoration forwell over 10 years. Planting success criteria used Adaptive Management techniques to ensure success, aswell, which included vegetation and salt ponds. Throughout these efforts, WEC worked closely with FEMA(the funding agent) and FDEP staff. In addition to beach restoration work, WEC has also conducted a feasibilitystudy on the critically eroded Sombrero Beach which includeddeployment of a wave profiler to gather current andwave data, benthic, bathymetric and sea grass surveys, lateraldrift/sediment transport modeling and development ofconceptual groins and other near‐shore breakwaters to controlerosion in addition to a full evaluation and study of thelong term effects of the “no‐action” alterative.Additionally, Coco Plum Beach was undeveloped and requiredsubstantial restoration due to storm damage and long‐termdeterioration.
