WHAT CAN BE DONE?
- To restore the beach, coastal erosion experts recommend:
Bring offshore sand back to the beach to create a buffer zone
WHAT IS NBBF DOING?
With a goal to Restore the beach, here’s our Status Update:
– Beach erosion process study with ongoing camera capture
- Hired a coastal engineering firm who CONFIRMED (Q3, 2018): good beach quality sand is in the bay (picture #8, N1 and N5) and plenty of it
- Coastal engineer has done three Beach Profile studies to quantify beach dimensions and slopes, which will help design best placement of sand
- Two other essential studies began in 2019
– Beach erosion process study with ongoing camera capture
NBBF is FUND RAISING to support the goal of bringing matching offshore sand back to repair erosion losses
NBBF is working with Maui County, Sea Grant and DLNR to successfully restore the beach using a Small Scale Beach Restoration III project, hopefully by Q3, 2021
Science/Technology side well outlined and the permitting process is being streamlined by DLNR – we know what we need to do to meet their standards
WHAT WE NEED NOW IS YOUR HELP – to raise funds to do the studies needed this year and next. Please help us RESTORE NAPILI BEACH with a tax-deductible donation, using the donate buttons on this website.
