USACE wants 6 sea walls at Pismo Beach

Written by Randy Post

Tuesday, 14 December 2010 23:28

One of six areas proposed for sea walls is a stretch of Ocean Boulevard in Shell Beach, where erosion is eating away at the bluffs and beach, exposing a storm drain pipe.

Coastal erosion is threatening existing structures at Shell Beach and northern Pismo Beach near San Luis Obispo, California. The Army Corps of Engineers suggests 6 sea walls to protect infrastructure such as two sewage treatment facilities, Highway 101, Price Street, drainage structures and to preserve building setbacks.
