One of Justin's better ideas was to place grass into the area next to the Phase I pier to prevent erosion. This was done last fall and looked pretty weak earlier in the spring. J.R. has had Edward water and feed the area lately and the difference can be seen. We have had two cases of high tide and high winds this spring and the grass has prevented the beach from washing out. The water cascades over the bulkhead and usually washes the sand off the beach back into the bay. There has been some washout, but nothing like we usually experience. To date no new sand has had to be hauled in and that is a real savings.
