Recurring Modification of Non-Historic Rock Revetment to Maintain Natural Coastal Processes at Sand Point (51579) > Public Documents


The National Park Service (NPS) at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore proposes to periodically remove portions of an existing rock revetment at Sand Point to increasingly restore natural conditions. PIRO could use removed revetment stone for defining parking area boundaries and similar uses. Stones could also be crushed and used for filling holes or paving operations. PIRO routinely removes accumulated sand from a small, shallow boat launch located at Sand Point. The proposed action would allow the dredged sand to periodically be transported from the boat dock area to the revetment and deposited on the existing revetment to cover exposed stones.
