Spencer Rogers, Shoreline Erosion Specialist with NC Sea Grant:

Oak Island Dune Repair Workshop

In-person, August 10, 2021, 9-11:30 am

At the 801 Ocean Event Center, with field experience outside

What’s the dune situation on Oak Island now? Is it sustainable, ready to grow into a structure that will buffer coming storms and protect our place? What has Oak Island provided, and how can you work with the resources you have? Using a copy of The Dune Book, (the workshop text, provided), Rogers will share examples of coastal processes that build dunes and how changes we make can enhance or degrade them. Town staff will also provide information. Listen, look outside and learn at this public workshop, for the health of our protective dunes.
