Cape Canaveral . Restore 14,600 ft (2.8 miles) of beach at the city of Cape Canaveral. 

 Volume needed for initial restoration was 988,000 cy. Approximately 240,000 cy would be 

 needed annually for periodic nourishment (16.4 cy/ft). The sand-transfer plant was expected to 

 transfer 315,000 cy of material across the inlet annually. Therefore, no periodic nourishment was 

 authorized for the Cape Canaveral project segment. 



Patrick AFB . Restore 10,600 ft (2.3 miles) of beach at Patrick AFB without Federal (Civil 

 Works) participation. Federal agencies owning the property involved would be responsible for 

 their own justification and funding for project construction. Volume needed for initial 

 restoration was 700,000 cy. Approximately 82,000 cy would be needed annually for periodic 

 nourishment (7.7 cy/ft). 



Indialantic/Melbourne . Restore 10,600 ft (2.0 miles) of beach at Indialantic Beach and 

 Melbourne Beach. Volume needed for initial restoration was 603,000 cy. Approximately 

 68,000 cy would be needed annually for periodic nourishment (6.4 cy/ft). 



It is important to note that, with the exception of Cape Canaveral, all of the areas identified as 

 having erosion problems were eroding at similar rates, between 6.4 and 7.7 cy/ft/year. Two of 

 the eroding areas are located more than 9 miles north of Canaveral Harbor, to the north of Cape 

 Kennedy, and are totally outside the zone of influence of the Harbor entrance. 



Brevard County, Florida, Project Construction . 



{Cape Canaveral Segment). About 2.0 of the 2.8-mile City of Cape Canaveral segment of 

 the Brevard County, Florida, beach-erosion control project was completed in March 1975. 

 Approximately 2.8 Mcy of sand were placed. In addition, about 1.3 Mcy were placed as part of 

 the beach-erosion control project. The work was performed under an agreement dated April 26, 

 1973, and executed between the US ACE and Brevard County Board of Commissioners (Contract 

 No. DACW17-73-A-0009). The remaining 1.5 Mcy were placed on private property landward of 

 the erosion control line (ECL) at Federal expense as a least-cost disposal site for new-work 

 dredging as part of the deepening of the navigation entrance channel for the Trident. The 

 southern 0.8 miles of the beach-erosion control project was not nourished as part of this work. 



(Indialantic/Melbourne Beach Segment). The 2-mile Indialantic and Melbourne Beach 

 Segment (R-122+500 ft to R-134+500 ft) of the Brevard County, Florida, beach-erosion control 

 project was completed in 1981. About 540,000 cy were placed along 2 miles of beach. The 

 contract above was amended in 1979 for this project segment. The project was authorized with a 

 50-year project life. Federal participation was limited by the authorizing act to 10 years from the 

 completion of construction. Federal participation expired at the end of 1 99 1 .
