Gilchrist west beach nourishment

Project Description

The Bolivar Peninsula nourishment project completed in early 2004 was significantly degraded by hurricane Rita in September 2005.  This nourishment project will repair some of that damage through FEMA funding.  The repair involves truck hauling of approximately 18,500 cubic years from the borrow site near Caplen shores for placement on the Gilchrist beaches west of Rollover Pass.
