As of the close of business on Monday, March 15, 2010 the contractor had completed hauling sand to the eastern portion of Cape Henry Beach. The project included hauling 50,000 cubic yards of sand and reached from Ships Watch Court, where replenishment from the navigation project terminated, to the border with First Landing State Park/Kendall Street received sand from this effort[.]
Restoration of the Oak Street beach dune-access is anticipated to be completed by this Wednesday March 17, 2010 (with sprigging of the beach dune-access (sides of dunes) to be performed in the coming weeks). Oak Street is also scheduled to receive street sweeping this Wednesday. Public Works Operations has observed no damage to Oak Street and will re-review Oak Street upon completion of the street sweeping. Public Works – Operations is scheduled to rake Cape Henry Beach this week as final completion of the beach replenishment.
A topographic survey of the beach has been scheduled to commence next week to document the ‘after placement’ condition.
Thank you for your comments and input. If you have any questions or need additional information, please let me know.
