    Derek Thorn, a geographer with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Charleston District, records tenth-of-an-inch elevation data using precision surveying instruments near the Ashley River bridges in downtown Charleston, South Carolina, Sept. 11, 2026, in support of the Battery Extension project. The Charleston District designed the proposed 10-foot NAVD88 perimeter surge barrier under the Charleston Peninsula Coastal Storm Risk Management study to protect regional infrastructure and reduce economic flood damages during major coastal storm events.
