3. Los Angeles District and South Pacific Division CERB June 4, 2009 ROAD TO SOLUTIONS Urbanization of Watershed Dam Sand held in place by future urbanization is compensated through projects or fees. Less Beach Erosion Beach replenished with sand dredged from offshore or transported from inland projects. Harbor Sand Trapped by Harbor Structures Sand from harbors placed on beaches in need. Sand and Gravel Mining Sand loss compensated through projects or fees. Ocean Sediment Trapped Behind Dams and Debris Basins Regional Sediment (Sand) Management Mining moved out of river. More sand transported to coast. More Sand Reaching Coast Sediment excavated and bypassed downstream. Reservoir
