The city's supplemental contractor is now halfway complete. Sand placement has been completed from 6th Avenue through 9th Avenue.
Sand has also been placed between 4th and 6th Avenues, but grading is still ongoing in that area.
Work in the vicinity of 5th and 6th Avenues, extending through Breach Inlet, is expected to be completed within the next two weeks.
Wild Dunes Shoal Management crews will shift locations this weekend.
This weekend, crews will move from the Beachwood East area to place sand in the area in front of Seascape and the Ocean Club Villas. This phase is expected to take around ten days to complete.
Following that, work will resume in the Beachwood East area and continue until mid-May.
USACE has moved to 3rd Avenue. Sand is expected to be placed there on Friday, April 11.
The city's supplemental contractor began work on Monday, April 7 at 10th Avenue and are progressing southward along the beach. They are expected to place sand at a rate of approximately two blocks per week. Work at 7th and 6th Avenues is anticipated to begin the week of April 14.
Wild Dunes Shoal Management crews began work on Wednesday, April 9. Work will continue exclusively in the Beachwood East area for approximately another week. Once that phase is complete, they will shift to the Ocean Club area, where work is expected to continue for a couple of weeks.
USACE has paused sand placement in order to extend pipes up to 3rd Avenue and shift operations to a new holding site. Work is expected to resume the week of April 7.
During the week of April 7, the transport of sand by the city's supplemental contractor will begin. The sand deposited will create a new dune stretching from 9th Avenue to Breach Inlet.
Shoal Management: Crews will start mobilizing on Monday, April 7. Sand is expected to be excavated from the approaching shoal and deposited next to Beachwood East, Ocean Club Villas and Seascape Villas. The anticipated completion date is in June.
USACE has completed initial work associated with dredging approximately 60,000 cubic yards of material to make the Intracoastal Waterway navigable. Sullivan's Island agreed to allow the contractor to place the remaining 20,000 cubic yards of sand allocated to them onto the Isle of Palms. Now that Sullivan's Island allocation is complete, the contractor has started moving the material allocated to Isle of Palms. The sand will be moved into a protective berm once sufficient material has been placed on the beach.
Sand has started to arrive on the Isle of Palms! The photo below shows the area adjacent to 200 Ocean Boulevard.
Over the weekend, the USACE dredging contractor, Ahtna, began mobilizing pipes onto the Isle of Palms near Breach Inlet to initiate a beneficial use project that will pump sand from the Intracoastal Waterway onto the beach. The contractor will initially pump sand that has shoaled into the Intracoastal Waterway and then shift their dredging operation back to the upland dredge placement areas. The contractor has indicated that the Intracoastal dredging should last about three weeks, before returning back to the placement area dredging. Ultimately, the project is expected to result in over 500,000 cubic yards of sand onto the Isle of Palms.
Coastal Science & Engineering presented the(2024) Monitoring Reportfor the Isle of Palms beach.
Ahtna, the contractor hired by the USACE to perform the beneficial use project, began pumping operations on Sunday, September 22, 2024 at Sullivan's Island. The contractor will continue operations during daytime hours for the first week, and then transition to 24/7 operations.USACE will evaluate the contractor's daily production data to determine production rate and provide the city with a more detailed schedule of when they’ll complete the work at Sullivan's Island and move the sand pumping operations to Isle of Palms.
City Council approved an allocation of $200,000 from the Beach Preservation Fee Fund for the installation of additional sandbags along Beachwood East, which is experiencing erosion. The city continues to pursue a permit for the construction of a shoal management project, which involves harvesting sand from an incoming shoal on the north end of the island.
At the regular Council Meeting, City Council received an update from Steven Traynum from Coastal Science and Engineering, about the condition of the beach at Breach Inlet and Beachwood East, which continue to be impacted by erosion. City Council approved an emergency expenditure for the installation of sandbags along the erosional area of 130-304 Ocean Boulevard, where properties are within 20’ feet of the erosion, to provide protection until the start of the US Army Corps of Engineer’s Beneficial Use Project this fall. The beneficial use project involves placing approximately 550,000 cubic yards of beach compatible sand along the inter tidal zone between 2nd Avenue and 10th Avenue.
A revised shoal management permit applicationfor the north end project was submitted to the state and federal permitting agencies, removing the sand recycling portion of the project from 44th and 53rd Avenue, from the project application.
USACE informed the city that Ahtna, the contractor, decided to shift the order of sand placement based on a review of site conditions. Sand placement will begin at Sullivan's Island in mid to late August.
The work on Sullivan’s Island is expected to take approximately 3-4 weeks. After the sand placement on Sullivan’s Island is complete, the contractor will begin pumping sand on Isle of Palms. It is expected that the work on Isle of Palms will begin in late September 2024 and take 4 months to complete.
The USACE has given the contractor approval to begin mobilization to the placement areas to begin initial clearing and dewatering activities. Most of the contractor’s equipment is on site or nearby the AIWW. They anticipate 6-8 weeks of clearing and dewatering activities before they can start delivering sand to the beachfront.
City hosts a public meeting regarding the proposed shoal management project on the north end of the island. The public meeting will be held at 5:00 p.m. at the Isle of Palms Recreation Center at 24 28th Avenue.
Coastal Science & Engineering submits permit application to OCRM for a shoal management project on the north end of the island.
On Tuesday, February 20, 2024, City Council adopted an emergency ordinance allowing owners of beach front properties located between 100 and 914 Ocean Boulevard to install a revetment or seawall entirely landward of the critical area, as determined by the Ocean and Coastal Resource Management office (OCRM).
Coastal Science & Engineering presented the(2023) Monitoring Reportfor the Isle of Palms beach.
USACE Beneficial Use Project
City Council heard a presentationfrom B. Jacob Kyzer, USACE Project Manager, overseeing the Breach Inlet Beneficial Use Project. The primary purpose of the project is to regain capacity in several upland dredge placement areas along the Intracoastal Waterway by removing beach compatible sand and placing the sand below the high tide line between 10th Avenue and 2nd Avenue. Approximately 550,000 cubic yards of sand will be placed.
Project schedule is not yet complete, but anticipated to begin mid to late May 2024.
At this meeting, City Council formed the Beach Preservation Ad Hoc Committee. The committee is tasked with the following:
Review beach restoration policies and practices and provide recommendations,
Develop recommendations for a more proactive response to beach erosion, and
Develop recommendations for new, consistent, and sustainable funding mechanisms to fund future needs and projects.
The Ad hoc committee held its first meeting on February 9, 2024, and plans to meet every Friday for the next several months. At their first meeting, Steven Traynum with Coastal Science & Engineering gave a presentationof beach condition and preservation efforts on the island since 2007.
Collins Construction starts a targeted sand scraping operation between 13 and 17 Beachwood East. Contractor will be accessing the beach via the 53rd beach access path.
OCRM issued an emergency order to install sandbags and scrape sand from the beach from 13 to 17 Beachwood East on Isle of Palms due to impacts from recent king tide events.
City Council approved $300,000 for emergency erosion control efforts in the area of Beachwood East.The City requested an emergency order from OCRM for sand scraping and placement of sandbags between 12-17 Beachwood East. These properties meet the state’s emergency threshold of being within 20’ of the erosion.
The City held a public meeting at the Isle of Palms Exchange Club regarding the upcoming beneficial use project of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) between Breach Inlet and 10th Avenue.The purpose of the meeting was to provide the public with a comprehensive understanding of the project's scope, timeline, benefits, and potential impact.The meeting included a presentation from the USACE about the scope of the project, followed by a presentation from Coastal Science & Engineering, the City's coastal engineer, about the scope of the upland work. City Attorney and City staff discussed the need to secure temporary easement agreements from the front beach property owners within the project limits.
Sand Scraping
Collins Construction, the City’s contractor, is expected to complete the dune restoration in the next few days. Contractor is restoring the dune between 100 and 314 Ocean Boulevard.
Sandbags
OCRM has authorized the placement of sandbags between 120 and 206 Ocean Boulevard as these properties meet emergency conditions. The city has engaged Collins Construction for the placement of sandbags along this section of Ocean Boulevard. This effort aims to quickly mitigate the impacts of erosion and safeguard property from additional damage. The plan is to restore and stabilize the berm prior to the placement of sandbags. Once sandbags are installed, per the state’s permit, the city cannot continue to scrape sand in front of the berm. The sandbag placement will likely commence early next week and is expected to be completed in several days. Our team will work diligently to minimize any disruption during this period.
Trucking Sand
Collins Construction will begin trucking beach compatible sand from an upland source on Monday. The goal is to add new sand to the system and place additional material in front of the restored dune and supplement the ongoing scraping operation.
Emergency Ordinance 2023-01
At a special meeting held on Tuesday, October 10, 2023, City Council adopted anemergency ordinancethat allows front beach property owners between 100 and 914 Ocean Boulevard to install sandbags landward of OCRM's jurisdiction in accordance with certain conditions specified in the ordinance. If you are interested in performing this work in your property, please contact City staff at City Hall 843-886-6428 for additional guidance.
City Council held a special meeting on Tuesday, October 3, 2023, to take action to address the beach erosion issue that we have been facing in the south end of the beach, near Breach Inlet. The City's top priority is to ensure the safety and preservation of the beach and front beach homes.
Sandbags
Council approved a budget of $250,000 specifically dedicated to the installation of sandbags. These sandbags will be placed in properties that are in emergency conditions and meet the state's threshold for approval, meaning a habitable structure or pool is within 20 feet of the erosion area. This measure aims to provide immediate support and protection to those properties most at risk.
Sand Scraping and Trucking Sand Operation
Additionally, the Council has allocated $1.250 million to continue sand scraping efforts, supplemented by trucking in beach-compatible sand. The goal is to place up to 50,000 cubic yards of sand in the affected area. By replenishing the beach with this additional sand, we hope to mitigate further erosion and stabilize the area until the completion of the beneficial use project the City is partnering with the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The primary purpose of this beneficial use project is for the USACE to regain capacity in several upland dredge disposal areas along the AIWW by rehandling beach compatible sand to Isle of Palms and Sullivan’s Island. The project involves placing approximately 550,000 – 750,000 cubic yards of sand; approximately 200,000 CY will be placed in Sullivans Island and the rest will be placed at IOP between 2nd Avenue and 10th Avenue. The City’s plan is to engage the same contractor to scrape the sand up from the surf zone into the dry sand beach and enhance the existing primary dune. This work would be done after the sand placed has been adequately cleaned by the tides. The project design is 95% complete. USACE anticipates going out for bid in October, award a contract in December, and start construction in January 2024. Our next step is to host a public meeting for the USACE to give an overview of their project, our costal engineers CSE to explain the scope of the additional beach restoration work to be done by the City and staff explain the need to obtain temporary easements from the front beach property owners through 10th Avenue. We are working on the date and logistics for the meeting and will share those details with you once finalized.
Emergency Ordinance to Allow Temporary Placement of Sandbags
Council instructed staff to draft an emergency ordinance to allow property owners to install of 1 cubic yard sandbags landward of the jurisdiction of the Office of Coastal Resource Management (OCRM). Council is expected to take action on this emergency ordinance at a special meeting next Tuesday, October 10, 2023.
The City understands the concerns and challenges that beach erosion poses to property owners. The City is committed to taking all necessary measures to address this issue promptly and effectively.
Portions of the beach in the Breach Inlet area have experienced significant erosion, due to recent king tides. City mobilized crews to restore the dunes in need of emergency repair. Work involved sand scraping to restore the dune in areas where properties met emergency conditions.
City Council approved a contract with Coastal Science and Engineering for the following projects:
Scope A: Permitting a sand recycling “shoal management” project in north end Dunes [$69,534]
Scope B: Initial sand search, geophysical data collection, and State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) coordination to begin the process of identifying borrow areas for future nourishments at the north and south end [$168,895]
Scope C: Coordination with the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) on the beneficial use project proposed for the southern end of the island, as well as construction planning and administration for dune enhancement project in connection with the USACE project [$85,069]
The emergency berm restoration project between 100 and 314 Ocean Boulevard and 11-20 Beachwood East was completed.
Some areas of the Isle of Palms coastline experienced significant erosion due to Hurricane Idalia. The city took immediate action to restore its beaches and ensure their long-term sustainability. The city launched a comprehensive beach cleanup and restoration effort that will continue over the next few weeks. The City obtained an emergency order from OCRM that allowed sand scraping to restore the dune between 100 and 314 Ocean Boulevard and 11-20 Beachwood East.
Coastal Science & Engineering presented the Year 4 (2022) Monitoring Report for the Isle of Palms beach.
Coastal Science & Engineering presented the Year 2 (2020) Monitoring Report for the Isle of Palms beach. The beach nourishment project area was fairly erosional, however, high erosion rates in the center of the project area where not seen as they did the previous year. The remainder of the island mostly gained sand, and in areas that showed some minor volume loss, the dune and dry sand beach remained healthy, with the loss occurring underwater.
Coastal Science & Engineering presented the Year 1 (2019) Monitoring Report for the Isle of Palms Beach.
The City's permit modification request went out on public notice. The public notice ends on February 27, 2020.
The City requested a modification to the 2018 nourishment permit to allow for dune restoration along a small section of Breach Inlet. The modification requests permission to scrape up to 6,000 cubic yards of sand from the accreting shoals of Breach Inlet and to construct a new dune 6 ft high along up to 1,900 liner feet of shoreline.
Coastal Science and Engineering submits final report on the 2018 Beach Renourishment Project.
Soft Sand in Isle of Palms Restored Beach Following Rain and Tide Event
Walking on the highest points of tilled areas affords the most stability.
The City of Isle of Palms has received reports from citizens of soft sand in the recently restored beach. In response to these concerns, the City has investigated conditions and worked with the City's Coastal Engineering Firm. Coastal Science & Engineering (CSE) assessed the situation this morning and reports that the soft sand is due to a combination of significant rain and tidal over wash of the berm which has saturated the berm and created a "waterlogged" beach.
"This soft sand creates conditions requiring beachgoers to use extreme caution when traversing this area," states Mayor Jimmy Carroll.
"Please be aware that beachgoers might unexpectedly step into one of these pockets of soft sand. Those beachgoers having physical challenges may wish to avoid the area of the beach from approximately access 57 to Dewees Inlet until this phenomenon concludes within the next couple of days and the shore is more stable," continues Mayor Carroll.
What has intensified this event is that the recent weather is the first significant rain event since the restored beach has been tilled. Tilling of the berm, which was required by the permitting agencies, is meant to reduce the sediment compaction so that the sand placed is loose enough to ensure suitable nesting habitat for sea turtles. Tilling loosens the sand and increases the pore space (amount of air) in the sand. When water is added to the freshly tilled sand, it fills the voids and creates the soft sand the beach is experiencing. It is expected that the beach should dry out in 2-3 days of good weather, and return to normal.
"The only remedy for this occurrence is time and repeated rain and over wash events, which will sort the sand to a natural compaction level where less water will be retained in the berm," says CSE Coastal Scientist, Steven Traynum. "We will continue to monitor the situation and the duration of the saturation and recovery of the newly restored beach. Until the beach dries, we recommend beachgoers use caution while walking over the berm."
The City is placing signs around the affected area alerting beachgoers of the soft sand. The area of the beach along the water line is not affected.
The sub-line pipe was safely and successfully removed from the Isle of Palms beach.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock has completed tilling all areas of the beach which were recently nourished. The beach nourishment project permits require that the sand placed be loose enough to ensure suitable nesting habitat for sea turtles.
The Dredge Illinois left the project area this morning en route to Norfolk, Virginia. The offshore sub-line pipe that runs from the shore to the dredge will be removed when the weather is suitable and contractor deems it safe.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock completed the sand pumping operation on Friday, March 23, 2018. They will continue to demobilize the pipe and land side equipment from Wild Dunes to the area around 53rd Avenue. This will be temporary while the trucks pick up and remove the equipment. Great Lakes Dredge and Dock is tilling the beach today.
As of today, approximately 1,583,453 cubic yards of sand have been placed on the beach and the project is roughly 97% complete. Remaining work includes placement of remaining sand, tilling and restoration of construction areas. Great Lakes Dredge and Dock has started demobilizing land based equipment.
As of March 13, 2018 approximately 1,333,445 cubic yards of sand have been placed on the beach and the project is roughly 80% complete, inclusive of the additional FEMA eligible 276,518 cubic yards of sand.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock, LLC tilled the newly restored beach which should aid in the absorption of storm surge from the recent nor'easter.
It is hoped that the dredge resumes pumping operations mid day on Thursday, March 8, 2018. A survey conducted on February 27th shows that approximately 1,124,989 cubic yards of sand has been placed and the project is roughly 78% complete.
The City received final approval from FEMA related to the City's Subgrant Application to replenish 276,518 cubic yards of sand lost on the Isle of Palms beach as a result of Hurricane Irma. The total project cost is $1,731,278.25, of which FEMA will reimburse the City 75%. On January 16, 2018, City Council approved a change order to the existing contract with Great Lakes Dredge and Dock, LLC for dredging the additional sand and to fund the 25% local share. Wild Dunes LLC, contributed $150,000 towards the local share.
The dredge has been taken to Charleston Harbor and is undergoing repairs to the anchor wires.
Residents may notice that the berm has standing water due to the higher than predicted high tides. The tide is over a foot and half higher than predicted due to the nor'easter creating higher than normal swells. Over wash of the berm is expected to occur occasionally during extreme tides or weather events and is also occurring in other areas of the island outside of the nourishment project area. As the nourished beach adjusts to the natural wave climate and tide conditions, over wash is expected to be less frequent.

Citizens should expect restricted access on the beach in the area of the Property Owners Beach House on Saturday, February 24 and Sunday, February 25.
Photos of the Beach Restoration Project progress.
As of this morning, approximately 890,325 cubic yards of sand have been placed and the project is roughlt 61% complete.
A mud roller can develop from a sand deposit when a layer of soft mud accumulates in a dredge pipe and forms a ball, or can be produced from chunks of stiffer mud (clay) deposits that break off and are smoothed while in the pipe
Mud rollers are not biologically significant, as they were likely buried by several feet of sand in the borrow area. If they are in the surf zone, they will naturally erode and go away. If they are in the dry beach, they will harden.
In addition to mud rollers, other possible unpleasant material that can be encountered in dredge projects are cemented shell deposits (essentially rocks) which may be present among sand.
In the City's current Beach Restoration, Great Lakes Dredge and Dock Corporation (GLDD) has moved away from the area having the highest concentration of clay deposits; but the area is proving to be very patchy, with small pockets of this material interspersed with good material.
Prior to the initiation of the dredging project, extensive sampling of the offshore zone of IOP was conducted to identify the areas having the best material; however, it was known that there was a chance that pockets of lesser quality material were present.
Significant mud rollers were not expected based on the borings, and GLDD has been very cooperative in adjusting to avoid the bad material. There will be some of the clay rollers buried in the fill that will be exposed over time as the beach erodes. The City's contractors are tracking the material several times a day and doing everything possible to put the best material available on the beach.
Attempts to remove as many of these mud rollers as can be removed are underway.
The City and Coastal Science and Environmental have been monitoring the presence of mud rollers on the beach. Great Lakes Dredge and Dock, LLC has moved the dredge out of the borrow area which was producing this material and has not encountered any more clay.
As of this morning, ~674,205 cubic yards of sand have been placed and the project is approximately 46% complete.
The Dredge Illinois has returned to Isle of Palms and resumed pumping operations.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock will move the Dredge Illinois into Charleston Harbor for replacement of a turbo in the pump. Great Lakes Dredge and Dock hopes to be back in position at the IOP Beach Restoration borrow area late Thursday evening, February 8th.
Progress on the project to date is that 660,000 cubic yards of sand have been placed.
Pedestrians using the beach in the construction area should only cross the dredge pipe using the sand ramps like the ones seen in this photograph.
Beach Nourishment Project progress map as of February 6, 2018.
The Dredge Illinois has returned to Isle of Palms and resumed pumping operations.
The Dredge Illinois has been moved to Charleston Harbor for pump repairs and it is expected to return to the Isle of Palms in several days.
The City received the amended US Army Corps of Engineers permit authorizing the increase of maximum nourishment volume in the project area east of 53rd Avenue from 1,400,000 to 1,685,000 cubic yards to compensate for losses occurring in this area during Hurricane Irma. The original permit also includes placement of up to 600,000 cy west of 14th Avenue; however, that scope of work is not part of the present dredging project.
Beach Nourishment Project progress map as of January 28, 2018.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock, LLC reports that as of this morning approximately 275,000 cy of sand has been placed on the beach.
Work has been completed on the beach west of Property Owner's Beach House in front of Beach Club Villas I and portions of Dunecrest Lane. Under construction at this time is the remaining area of the beach in front Dunecrest Lane and portions of Beachwood East.
The City received the amended SCDHEC permitauthorizing the increase of maximum nourishment volume in the project area east of 53rd Avenue from 1,400,000 to 1,685,000 cubic yards to compensate for losses occurring in this area during Hurricane Irma. The original permit also includes placement of up to 600,000 cy west of 14th Avenue; however, that scope of work is not part of the present dredging project.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock, LLC begam the sand pumping operations today. Citizens may expect restricted access in work zones. Activity is expected near Dunecrest Lane, Beach Club Villas and possibly Property Owners Beach House.
The submerged pipes and the land based equipment are in place and the Dredge Illinois is located at Charleston Harbor. Weather permitting, the expectation is that the dredge will be moved from Charleston Harbor to the offshore location off of the Isle of Palms shoreline and begin pumping sand next week.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock Company, LLC has begun the process of using heavy equipment for offloading pipe at the 53rd Beach Access path and onto the beach. It is anticipated that over approximately the 27th, 28th and 29th most of the land base equipment will be in place.The actual dredge is on its way from Norfolk with a possible stop inNorth Carolina if seas are too rough for transport.Weather and maintenance may affect exactly when the dredge will be on site and working, but the goal remains that the work will start around the first of the year and be completed by approximately the end of March.
Great Lakes Dredge and Dock Company, LLC began to mobilize its land based equipment and some of the piping on the island to be prepared to initiate the beach restoration project once the dredge arrives from Norfolk, Virginia. Some of the land based equipment is being delivered now and more will likely continue through the weekend. Great Lake Dredge and Dock will place the subline on the beach this weekend in the vicinity of Beach Club Villas and Dunecrest. There remains no perfect pumping start date to publicize because mobilization has many variables. Once the dredging is underway, work will occur 24/7 unless conditions at sea require a shut down. The majority of the stored land based equipment will be in the vicinity of Property Owners Beach House and on the beach seaward of the homes on Summer Dunes Lane.
Following Hurricane Irma, Coastal Science and Environmental completed an emergency beach survey and assessmentof the Isle of Palms shoreline to document beach volume changes, escarpment formation, dune erosion and debrisSee the profiles of the Isle of Palms beach before and after Hurricane Irma.
The City held the pre-construction meeting with representatives from the City's Coastal Engineer, Coastal Science & Engineering, and Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Company, LLC. The contractor has a window of work between October 1, 2017 and March 30, 2018.
As a result of the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, and its impact to the City's beach, the City awarded an emergency contract for protective measures to Robert Collins, LLC to do an emergency berm restoration from Breach Inlet to 10th Avenue, 56th to the area of the beach adjacent to Grand Pavilion and Seagrove, Beachwood East and Ocean Club. This work is expected to take several weeks to complete.
