should be discussed in the Project Information Report. Damaging
coastal storms are more frequent during certain seasons (e.g., the
late summer and early fall hurricane season on the Gulf and east
coast). The need for immediate emergency action and the extent of
immediate restoration required will be influenced by whether the storm
causing the damage occurs early or late in the storm season. If it is
late in the storm season, and the risk of a subsequent storm in the
current season is low, there is no need for emergency action under
Section 5. In such cases, the project should be renourished under the
terms of the PCA.
(4) Combined Emergency and Periodic Nourishment. In some
cases the non-Federal sponsor may wish to fully restore a beach fill
project where only a partial restoration is justified under the
provisions of Section 5. In these cases, a cost allocation
recommendation for the complete restoration project will be made
between emergency response under Section 5 (100 percent Federal cost)
and periodic nourishment under the terms of the PCA. This recommended
cost allocation and its rationale will be presented in the Project
Information Report.
