On September 26, 2022, Lt. Gen. Scott Spellmon, USACE Commanding General and 55th Chief of Engineers, signed the Miami-Dade Coastal Storm Risk Management Project for congressional approval. The Recommended Plan is for approximately 6.1 miles of periodic beach nourishment, including dune and berm features, through Bal Harbour Village, the Town of Surfside, and portions of the City of Miami Beach as well as a series of groins to be constructed in Bal Harbour, Fla. In addition to providing economic benefits, this plan will also contributes to the creation of habitat for nesting sea turtles and shorebirds through the restoration of the eroded beach and dune system. The signing of the report means the recommended project could receive Congressional authorization in a future Water Resources Development Act.
