The US Army Corps of Engineers is conducting its annual Harbor dredge. Sand removed from the Harbor inlet is deposited on City beaches. The work is expected to be complete in late May. Please use caution at the beach while this project is underway. Additionally, the Public Works Department initiated a feasibility study to develop a strategy to protect City beaches from the impacts of long-term shoreline erosion. The study considers options for beach sand replenishment and/or retention devices to stabilize and enhance beach widths in Oceanside. Save the date: A public workshop will be held Wednesday, May 26 at 6:00 p.m. on sand retention options.
