SPECIFICALLY, A LOW-SILL VINYL BULKHEAD AND MARSH PLANTINGS COMPRISED THE SEAWARD COMPONENT, AND RIP-RAP PLACED AT THE ACTIVELY ERODING TOE OF BERM COMPRISED THE LANDWARD COMPONENT. WHILE THE PROJECT HAS SUCCESSFULLY REESTABLISHED THE TIDAL MARSH HABITAT AND MITIGATED THE UPLAND EROSION, THE RIP-RAP HAS BEEN OVERTOPPED AND THE BEACH GRASS PLANTINGS LOST FROM BEHIND IT. THEREFORE, A VERTICAL EXPANSION OF THE RIP-RAP WITH HEAVIER STONE IS PROPOSED TO BETTER MAINTAIN THE FILL AND PLANTINGS TO BE REESTABLISHED BEHIND IT. AS THE ORIGINALLY IMPLEMENTED PROJECT AND IT S IMPACTS HAVE BEEN CONSISTENT WITH THE POLICY OBJECTIVE OF POLICY 4, THE PROJECT AS MODIFIED WOULD REMAlN SO.
