Sea Isle City Beach Nourishment Update

BEACH NOURISHMENT
August 31, 2009

Beach nourishment operations have been resumed; it is a 24/7 operation. The sand is conveyed via a pipeline which extends from the dredge in Corson’s Inlet to the area of the fill, currently approaching 43rd Street. The pipe will eventually extend all the way to 52nd Street.

Once the beach nourishment is complete, it will take several days to dismantle the pipeline. All beaches will remain open during the project with the exception of about four to six blocks in the area of the fill. As the fill moves to the South, the beach behind the fill will be reopened and the beaches in front of the fill will be closed.

Beach nourishment operations have been completed in the north end of the City, from 1st Street to 15th Street.

Questions regarding the project can be directed to Sea Isle City Director of Public Works, John Manganaro, 609-263-6000 X 3 or email at jmanganaro@seaislecitynj.us.

Sea Isle City Alert--Hurricane Bill



According to a recent update from Frank McCall, Director of the Cape May County Emergency Management Office, Hurricane Bill has weakened slightly but is still tracking northwest several hundred miles off the Atlantic Coast. Large swells generated by this storm will likely cause extremely dangerous surf and life-threatening rip currents.

Heavy rain with slow moving thunderstorms could come at the time of high tide. Ocean side high tides are at 9:00 PM Friday, 10:00 AM Saturday, 10:15 PM Saturday, and 10:45 AM Sunday. Back bay high tides are approximately one (1) to two (2) hours later. Minor tidal flooding is projected Friday through Sunday. Water in the streets could be slow to drain. Heavy surf can cause beach erosion. Move vehicles and equipment to high grounds and out of harms way.

Sea Isle City Beach Nourishment Delayed Until After Impending Storm

UPDATE
BEACH NOURISHMENT

August 20, 2009

The dredge Illinois is moving to safe harbor in Cape May to weather out the impending storm. Beachfill operations are suspended until on or about August 26th. Once the dredge is re-established in Corsons Inlet, it will then continue to pump sand onto the beaches of Sea Isle City.

Beach fill operations are completed in the north end of the City and has moved downtown from 40th to 52nd streets. The downtown work has been delayed due to the impending storm.

Once operations are resumed, it is a 24/7 operation. The sand will be conveyed via the pipeline which has been set up and extends from the dredge in Corson’s Inlet to the area of the fill. The pipe will eventually extend all the way to 52nd Street. Once the beach fill is complete, it will take several days to dismantle the pipeline. All beaches will remain open during the project with the exception of about four to six blocks in the area of the fill. As the fill moves to the South, the beach behind the fill will be reopened and the beaches in front of the fill will be closed.

Questions regarding the project can be directed to Sea Isle City Director of Public Works, John Manganaro, 609-263-6000 X 3 or email at
