California Coastal Commission Approves 3,200-Foot, $175 Million Seawall Project for San Francisco's Ocean Beach
Nov 15, 2024, 10:10 PM
The California Coastal Commission has unanimously approved the Ocean Beach Climate Change Adaptation Project in San Francisco, which includes the construction of a 3,200-foot-long buried seawall. This seawall, part of a $175 million initiative, is designed to protect critical infrastructure, including a sewage tunnel and a wastewater treatment plant, from coastal erosion. The project aims to safeguard the southern portion of Ocean Beach, particularly the area south of Sloat Boulevard. While the approval marks a significant step toward enhancing coastal resilience, it has faced opposition from some community members, including surfers, who are concerned about the environmental impact of the seawall.
