GEI Consultants | City of Sunny Isles Beach | RFQ 26-07-01 57 Public Beach Storm Damage Assessment and Coastal Infrastructure Design East Beach, Port Je erson, New York | Client: Village of Port Je erson The Village of Port Je erson’s shoreline su ered significant beach erosion and structural damage due to multiple State-of-Emergency storm events (November 2009, March 2010, December 2010, Hurricane Irene, Superstorm Sandy, and Tropical Storm Isaias). These severe storm events have occurred in recent years with greater frequency and severity. GEI was the primary environmental consultant assisting the Village through the damage assessment phase and served as the lead coordinator with FEMA and the New York State O ice of Emergency Management. GEI developed multiple FEMA project worksheets and site restoration concept plans, oversaw topographic and bathymetric survey e orts, and completed tidal wetland permitting for immediate measures to restore sites for public safety. The resultant damage from these events required reconstruction of the existing rip- rap revetment protecting the East Beach parking lot and recreation facility. The in-kind reconstruction was completed in 2014. Immediately a er, significant erosion occurred along the western end of the revetment and blu toe of slope, exacerbated by multiple nor’easters. GEI developed a design to secure the section of Village Beach Road and associated drainage structures in threat of becoming exposed and undermined, as well as provide safe access to the public beach. This design included an extension of the rock revetment and sheet piling to the blu and construction of a concrete access ramp.
