As part of the Long Term Coastal Protection Scheme, dredging will commence in The Kromme early September in areas as agreed to and approved by the project’s Environmental Control Officer.
The purpose of this dredging is to commence moving sand down towards the Sand River delta, after which it will be dredged or trucked onto the spit or main beach, which forms part of the first phase of this project.
Dredging In The Kromme
The Long Term Coastal Protection Scheme entails, amongst others, dredging of the Kromme River to supply sand for the initial establishment of the beach and the ongoing nourishment of the beach thereafter.
