GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

PART 1 - DESCRIPTION OF WORK

1.1 BACKGROUND: Historically in the past, storms and normal wind currents have driven the sand up against the sea wall, topped the wall and blew sand into piles on the promenade, parking lots and the Great Highway.

Highway providing access and accessibility to, from, and along the beach. There may be an option to this contract.
