Beach Replenishment: A True Jersey Shore Partnership

For the first time in decades, 2025 saw no federal dollars allocated for beach replenishment. Without these critical funds, South Jersey’s shoreline faces unprecedented risk, especially for the homes, businesses, and ecosystems it protects. Early appropriations for the next fiscal year suggest even deeper cuts ahead. That’s why we’ve partnered with the Jersey Shore Partnership, the state’s leading authority on coastal restoration, for a virtual roundtable on Wednesday, October 1 to discuss:

• The implications of zero federal funding for beach replenishment

• Economic, environmental, and community impacts of reduced beach replenishment

• Strategies for local and state advocacy to secure future funding
