摘要

Broward County, Florida, is located between Palm Beach County to the north and Miami-Dade County to the south, and contains approximately 24 miles of sandy beaches along the Atlantic Ocean. The county has a robust coastal management program dating back to 1965. Broward County's shoreline is regularly maintained though periodic renourishment and benefits from existing and planned inlet sand bypassing. Historically, beach renourishment projects utilized sand from offshore borrow areas in order to restore and maintain beaches; however, continued beach nourishment is anticipated to become more complicated due to the decreased availability of cost-effective, local sand resources. Due to the depletion of local known sand resources, the county has examined alternative sand resources as means to achieve its future beach management needs. Continued beach nourishment through the use of upland sand mines has been examined in addition to feasibility studies and investigations into the use of aragonite sand and recycled glass. Additionally, the county has put forth a considerable investment into implementing sand bypassing at Port Everglades in order to serve as a supplemental local and sustainable source of sand for southern county beaches. Since 1970, more than 12 million cubic yards of sand have been added to the Broward County beaches through beach nourishment. The critical need for renourishment of the beaches within Broward County will not diminish due to increasing human and natural pressures, and therefore, the county is faced with identifying future sources that are both physically and economically sustainable in order to maintain its beaches.
