We, the undersigned, supporters of the Surfrider Foundation Treasure Coast Chapter, are petitioning the US Army Corp of Engineers (Corps) to reject the so-called "borrowing" of sand from the St. Lucie shoal. The taxpayers cost of Miami-Dades "re-nourishment" project would be astronomical. This shoal is designated Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) under National Marine Fisheries Service protection; a barrier shoal providing protection to Hutchinson Island and our nuclear power plant; and important charter, commercial, and recreational fishing location, providing crucial economics and recreation for our communities. As the keepers of the Treasure Coast, we are vehemently against the Corps from allowing Miami-Dade and other Florida counties from stealing this shoal and our shoreline protection.
