Unsustainable Beach Fill Projects

"These massive dredge-and-fill projects [along the coast in New Jersey] have come at a price," said William Rosenblatt, co-founder of the Jersey Shore chapter of the Surfrider Foundation and chairman of its national organization. "[The Army Corps of Engineers'] one-size-fits-all approach to our coasts has impaired recreation and given rise to more vulnerable coastal development. What they are doing is not sustainable." - quote appeared in this Star-Ledger article.
