Summary
This project involved the final design and construction of a shoreline stabilization project along the Gulf shoreline at the Village of Surfside Beach, and was partially funded with FEMA Public Assistance funds. Approximately 3,500 feet of rock revetment was installed along the seaward side of Beach Dr. The revetment was designed to provide protection from a two-year storm, yet withstood the estimated 30-year storm impact of Hurricane Ike, protecting Beach Drive, infrastructure, and houses on the landward side of Beach Drive.
