Sand plan eyed to replenish San Clemente shoreline by 2015
Army Corps of Engineers may place 251000 cubic yards of sand on both sides of the San Clemente pier to restore the shoreline. The plan, funded in part by Congress, could start in 2015 with an $11.3 million initial restoration and total 50 year cost of $98.1 million. Local funding would come from grants and Beach Department savings as natural sand replenishment returns with late season swells.

Beach Replenishment Plan Proposed for San Clemente
The San Clemente coast faces sand loss due to El Nino storms and reduced creek sediment. Congress may vote next year on an 11.3 million initial sand replenishment with 98.1 million more over 50 years, to refuel every 6 years. The plan includes offshore rock protection and a 5 414 Tet shoreline push, totaling 251000 cubic yards of sand. Project aims to create a beach berm up to 17 feet high and altered surf patterns at T Street, with monitoring of wave changes and potential temporary effects.
