Construction and Rehabilitation History 



1986 



Construction of three 250-ft-long offshore breakwaters was completed 

 at the site (Figure 217) , The breakwaters were rubble-mound struc- 

 tures with +8 ft Iwd crest els and 14-ft-wide crest widths (Fig- 

 ure 217). Side slopes were 1V:1.5H, and armor stone ranged from 4.5 

 (mln) to 10 tons (max) . 



Model tests (Bottln 1982a) were conducted to determine causes of ero- 

 sion of the beach fill. Improvement plans consisted of modifications 

 to the west end of the west breakwater and the west groin. 



There is no record of repairs to the breakwaters, nor have any im- 

 provements been made. The breakwaters are in good condition. An 

 aerial view of the Lakevlew Park breakwaters is shown in Figure 218.
