A student needed help finding information on the number of beach nourishment projects that have occurred over the years. He also needed the cost associated with them. I found a number of books and articles discussing this but I found a nice report from the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources that provides that a much more comprehensive view of this information:
Department of Environment and Natural Resources. North Carolina Beach and Inlet Management Plan. Final Report. April 2011.
Web: http://www.nccoastalmanagement.net/BIMP/BIMP%20Final%20Report.html
Appendix D of this report includes a beach nourishment database with this information.
