Overview: The Chatham Conservation Commission meeting on October 23, 2024, prominently addressed the town’s coastal erosion challenges, with focus on a proposed project involving temporary groins and beach nourishment at Crescent Beach. The project, driven by alarming erosion rates of up to 19 feet annually in some areas, aims to mitigate these issues while maintaining safe navigation and preserving the beach. The coastal resource director and John Ramsey, representing the town, provided context for the project, emphasizing the need for proactive measures without immediately implementing the structures. Ramsey detailed how the proposed flow control structures, designed to be removable, would redirect currents offshore, potentially resulting in sand deposition and reduced erosion. The project would involve a 1,000-foot structure, including groins and offshore veins, and the placement of 84,000 cubic yards of sand.
