Truck Hauling of sand complete, dredging begins
ATL Diversified, Inc., (ATL) has completed the truck hauling portion of Sebastian Inlet District's beach placement project, with dredging to follow.
ATL placed approximately 92,000 cubic yards of material on part of a 2.5-mile stretch of beach south of Sebastian Inlet. The company will now begin dredging approximately 215,000 cubic yards of beach-compatible sand from a designated sand trap and adjacent navigation channel located within Sebastian Inlet. Sand will be placed on the downdrift beaches between the state park's day use beach on the south side of the inlet and McLarty Treasure Museum.
The project is necessary for the Sebastian Inlet District to meet its requirement to bypass sand that migrates into the inlet system to downdrift beaches per the Florida Beach & Shore Preservation Act.
Project updates will be posted on our projects page , our app and on our social media pages on Facebook and Instagram. See our project FAQ page for additional details.
