Alternative 1
Alternative 1 would involve beach replenishment with approximately 2 million cy of sand to be deposited
at 12 receiver sites. Table ES-3 shows the sand quantities at each receiver site under both production
scenarios.
Alternative 1a
Receiver Sites
Beach replenishment at South Oceanside would involve onshore placement of sand from just south of
Forster Street to Kelly Street for a total length of approximately 4,100 feet (0.8 mile). Dredged sediment
would be placed on the existing sand beach and graded to form a berm. The top of the berm would be
constructed to an elevation of approximately 13 feet above mean lower low water (MLLW, which is the
average of the lower low water height of each tidal day observed over time) and would be flat and 135 feet
