July 12, 2016: **** BREAKING NEWS ****
As of today, July 12, 2016, the Borough has been informed the beach project taking place in North Beach will be extended into Harvey Cedars from the south end to Hudson Avenue.
This will be a boon to our beach and our protection, all funded by the Army Corps.
The much needed sand is expected to reach Harvey Cedars by the 3rd week in August. There may be project equipment on the beach. The north end of town will be slated for extra sand in September.
The north end sand will be pumped from the Loveladies project at least to 82nd Street or further if more sand is available.
The Borough will redistribute the sand both North and South as best they can to fill in the areas between the pumped sand areas.
This opportunity for extra sand is not in lieu of the full replenishment needed due to storms Joaquin and Jonas. We expect to be in line for a full repair as money is made available by Congress. The fencing, walkovers, and dune grass will be replaced as needed.
Updates will be posted as available.
