Surf City Signs Coastal Defense Deal | Wilmington News

Surf City is set to make history as it signs a major partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on Monday, August 17th, launching a long-awaited coastal defense upgrade designed to shield the town from future storms. After years of planning since 2010, this project will bring in fresh sand to widen beaches and construct a new dune system — creating a stronger barrier against erosion and storm surges. The signing ceremony at Roland Avenue Beach Access at 10 AM will feature federal, state, and local leaders, and the public is invited to witness this pivotal moment for Surf City’s resilience. Parking is available at Kinston and Roland Avenues. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
