_PROJF~T DESCRIPTION
The western shoreline of the Indian River which fronts the City of Sebastian's Riverview
Park, along Indian River Drive, has been plagued for years with avulsion and erosion due
to its exposure to northeasterly storms, which create damaging high energy waves.
Attempts to harden the shore with concrete rubble and inappropriate f'di, without the use
of f'flter cloth, have failed to protect the shoreline.
The St. Jolms River Water Management District's SWIM program, working jointly with
the City of Sebastian, is proposing a shoreline restoration project to reduce or eliminate the
persistent source of sefllment loading into the lagoon. These sediments are causing negative
impacts to adjacent seagrass'and oyster beds.
The proposed project addresses 500 linear feet of shoreline. To stabilize and protect the
shoreline, existing concrete rubble will be removed and replaced with a consistent f'dl
material to attain a minimum 2:1 slope. An erosion control filter fabric will be installed
and covered with 3 ft. size coq,ina boulders. In addition to the coquina rock, other
measures will be taken to further the control of erosion while providing some ecological
habitat value.
Native ground cover grasses will be planted at the top of slope to reduce
erosion due to stormwater runoff.
Salt tolerant marsh grass (Sparfina alterniflora) will be planted at the toe of
the hardened slope to buffer wave energy and provide habitat.
Along the northernmost 100 ft., red mangroves will be planted in wooden
planters set in the coquina rock, near the bottom of the slope. Mangroves
will provide habitat and resource value, as well as aesthetics and educational
opportunities.
Along the southernmost 150 ft. of shoreline, 6 inch coquina rip rap will be
placed 5-10 ft. offshore in a row approximately 4 ft. wide and 1.5 ft. high.
The rock is intended to serxe as a substrate for oyster spat colonization and
se~'e as a submerged wave break.
At the project mid-point, a 60 ft. x 8 ft. wooden observation/fishing deck is
proposed for public access. This feature will also provide additional
environmental education and public awareness opportunities regarding
seagrasses, oyster bars~ shoreline protection, etc.
