The Flotilla year continues to roll right along. Appreciation is hereby extended to all of you that have dedicated many hours to making us the outstanding Flotilla that we are. Our next Flotilla Meeting is Thursday, June 2 at 1930 (7:30 P.M.) at the base. Please feel free to come early and make it a social time. Many of our snowbirds have headed North for the summer, so if you are in the area, please make an effort to attend. Feel free to invite friends that might be interesting in boating, or any of our other activities. As I write this we are in the middle of National Safe Boating Week. The weekend was filled with a wonderful turnout at both our Vessel Examiner Blitz and Public Affairs Blitz at Silver Palm Park and, of course, our great Fourth Cornerstone Event, thanks to Past Flotilla Commander Art Makenian at the Hillsboro Lighthouse. There are a lot of folks to thank for making the Social fantastic, but, none more than Marsha Marino. We have received Proclamations from Boca Raton and Delray Beach and had the opportunity to re-enforce the “Wear It” campaign as it relates to boating safety. Please make every effort to attend the Flotilla Meeting on June 2. Uniform is ODU, Trops or appropriate civilian attire. We have a great group of Staff Officers that are very active. If you are not very involved, please seek out these individuals and become a part of the team that is of most of interest to you. There are some opportunities to become a Staff Officer.

Pre-emptive strategies for enhanced sand bypassing and beach replenishment activities in southeast Florida: A geological perspective. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 18, 59-89. Fort Lauderdale (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. Although beaches on the southeast Florida coast are periodically replenished in an effort to reduce shoreline recession, such efforts have been only moderately successful. Erosion of sandy beaches on the downdrift (south) sides ofjettied inlets is a chronic problem that requires remediation. In order for erosion control measures to be effective, e.g. function harmoniously within the natural balance of coastal systems, coastal protection measures must consider the geological framework for this subtropical coast as it influences strategies for coastal management.

  • Hurricane Floyd and Irene (1999)
    The Impact of Hurricane Floyd & Hurricane Irene on the Florida East Coast 1999 Post-Storm Report No. BCS-00-01 Ralph R. Clark Florida Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Beaches and Coastal Systems April 2000 STORM SUMMARIES Hurricane Floyd Hurricane Floyd formed in the eastern north Atlantic as a tropical wave that moved off the African coast on September 2nd (figure 1). After traveling westward several days, the eighth tropical depression of the season became organized on September 7th and was upgraded to Tropical Storm Floyd on September 8th and then to Hurricane Floyd on September 10th when it was about 200 miles from the Leeward Islands. On September 11th, Floyd slowed, turned to the northwest and avoided the northeast Caribbean. A turn westward coincided with strengthening, and from September 12 to 13 Floyd strengthened to an intense category four hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Classification Scale. Floyd passed just northeast of San Salvador and the Cat Islands in the Bahamas late on September 13 but grazed Eleuthera Island on September 14 in the morning and turned northwest moving over Abaco Island in the afternoon where there was slight weakening from its peak intensity. Floyd finally veered from its track toward Florida moving northwest then north paralleling the coast. Hurricane Floyd’s eye came within 95 nautical miles off Cape Canaveral on September 15 before heading north toward the Carolina’s where it made landfall with 10-foot storm tides as a category two hurricane near Cape Fear on September 16. The Tropical Prediction Center reports maximum intensity winds of 135 knots (155 miles per hour) on September 13th when Floyd was located in the Atlantic east of the Bahamas.

  • 1 Appendix 1C: the Status Of
    APPENDIX 1C: THE STATUS OF SANDY, OCEANFRONT BEACH HABITAT IN THE COASTAL MIGRATION AND WINTERING RANGE OF THE PIPING PLOVER (Charadrius melodus)1 Tracy Monegan Rice Terwilliger Consulting, Inc. May 2012 The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS’s) 5-Year Review for the piping plover (Charadrius melodus) recommends developing a state-by-state atlas for wintering and migration habitat for the overlapping coastal migration and wintering ranges of the federally listed (endangered) Great Lakes, (threatened) Atlantic Coast and Northern Great Plains piping plover populations (USFWS 2009). The atlas should include data on the abundance, distribution and condition of currently existing habitat. This assessment addresses this recommendation by providing this data for one habitat type – sandy, oceanfront beaches within the migration and wintering range of the southeastern continental United States (U.S.). Sandy beaches are a valuable habitat for piping plovers, other shorebirds and waterbirds for foraging, loafing, and roosting. METHODS In order to evaluate the status of sandy, oceanfront beaches along the coastlines of North Carolina (NC), South Carolina (SC), Georgia (GA), Florida (FL), Alabama (AL), Mississippi (MS), Louisiana (LA) and Texas (TX), several methods were used. Non-sandy oceanfront areas were excluded since they do not currently provide this habitat; these areas occur along marshy sections of coast in Louisiana, the Big Bend Marsh coast of northwest Florida, the Ten Thousand Island Mangrove coast of southwest Florida, and the Florida Keys. The status of sandy, oceanfront beaches were evaluated through an estimation of the length and proportions of shoreline that were developed, undeveloped, preserved, armored and receiving beach fill or dredge spoil placement.

The Florida Legislature has declared that the Department of Environmental Protection constitutes the beach and shore preservation authority for the state and has directed the Department to develop and maintain a comprehensive long-term management plan for the restoration and maintenance of the state’s critically eroded beaches fronting the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico and the Straits of Florida. The Department has developed the SBMP, incorporating by reference adopted Inlet Management Implementation Plans (IMP’s), and held public meetings for the which the SBMP has been prepared, in accordance with Sections 161.091, 161.101, and 161.161, Florida Statutes. The Department initially adopted the SBMP in October 2000, and has subsequently updated the SBMP in May 2008, to reflect current conditions and management strategies. Public meetings were held on December 9th, 10th and 11th of 2014 for the updated SBMP, dated June 2015. Comments were received from the public during the meetings and also by way of e-mails after the public meetings. The public comments were reviewed and edits were made to the SBMP by the Department that were deemed necessary.
