Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the use of sand, gravel, and shell resources from the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) for the purpose of coastal protection and restoration. It begins by highlighting the increasing demand for sand and gravel for construction projects both onshore and offshore. Th…e author goes on to explain that coastal erosion affects all 30 coastal states and all U.S. island territories. Since coastal protection and restoration projects must compete with the demand for onshore coastal construction for these limited sand and gravel resources, the result has been a need to find and develop new sources of acceptable quality materials from less traditional sources, such as the nearby ocean floor. The book examines the history of the use of OCS sand and gravel resources and discusses the current legal and regulatory framework governing their use. It also identifies the potential environmental impacts of OCS sand and gravel mining and proposes measures to mitigate these impacts. Finally, the book assesses the economic benefits of OCS sand and gravel mining and discusses the potential for using these resources to address the problem of coastal erosion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
