BEACH DESIGN FOR A NEW PORT ANGELES PARK
Coastal Geologic Services is part of consultant team designing the Waterfront & Transportation Improvements Plan for a section of the downtown waterfront for the City of Port Angeles. The site contains 2,000 linear feet of heavily altered waterfront which will be transformed into a community friendly destination with considerable ecological improvements. CGS is providing numerical modeling for wave analysis, conceptual beach design, and 30% and 60% design for beaches in what will be a new city park. The pocket beaches will create over 370 linear feet of functional shoreline by removing approximately 25,000 CY of fill and over 2,000 CY of rock riprap for a pair of gravel beaches extending from -4 ft MLLW to a broad sand-covered backshore with vegetation.

SMUGGLER'S COVE ROAD
Coastal Geological Services, contracted by Friends of the San Juans, produced feasibility and beach enhancement design along a section of Smugglers Cove Road in Western Blind Bay, Shaw Island. First conceived by CGS in 2006 as a top-ranked restoration opportunity, the goal of the project was to enhance degraded natural processes and nearshore functions to recreate a viable forage fish spawning beach. CGS completed topographic and bathymetric surveying, conceptual design, design development, and final design drawings. The project included minimizing impacts of the rebuilt shore protection (for the County road), debris removal, beach nourishment, and backshore revegetation. Final project implementation was organized by CGS in the fall of 2011.

PSNERP RESTORATION DESIGN
Coastal Geologic Services is beginning work on developing preliminary restoration designs for up to 50 coastal restoration projects for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Puget Sound Nearshore Ecosystem Restoration Project. This is a long-awaited step in the federally funded Puget Sound Salmon recovery efforts. Potential projects span the length and width of the greater Puget Sound area.
