There was also a petition created by the residents of Roy Carpenters beach practically begging to have the dredging materials deposited there. They are fighting serious beach erosion - the snack bar/beach house and significant parts of the beachfront road all fell into the ocean last winter. The first row of cottages is seriously at risk this year with any major noreasters. This project is intended to help save this community.

Your talking about dredging materials from inside a harbor that has no manufacturing or industrial waste and supports a vibrant ecosystem full of fish. Not exactly Hudson River PCB's.

I think this petition might have good intentions, but in this instance their efforts are misplaced.

BTW -- if a new bar does form in front of the cottages - thats going to be nice structure with parking access.
