Venice Beach Renourishment

The Army Corp of Engineers is renourishing the Venice Beach by Sharky's pier restaurant.
This will be the third restoration of Venice Beach since 1996. The city has an agreement with the corps
to renourish every 10 years for 50 years to protect the original project, which placed 250 feet of sand seaward
of the high water line.
The restored beach serves to preserve natural and manmade
infrastructure from erosion and tropical storms and hurricanes.
It also serves to provide more sand for endangered sea
turtles, which normally nest on the same beach where they
hatched, to find sufficient areas for nesting. And, of course, the
beach is essential to the area’s greatest economic driver, tourism.

Had no idea you could run a dozer like that in soupy sand. You damn sure can't do that in mud.

Most often it’s a non issue, but there are exceptions
