Eco-Dune Is Not...
ECO-DUNE
IS NOT A STRUCTURE
- Does not pose a threat to buildings
in storms.
- No interference with natural wave
action
No importation or
manual
relocation of beach sand material
required.
Does not introduce inorganic
materials or contaminants
to the beach!
While
Eco-Dune,
like natural dunes, can protect coastal areas from beach erosion
and property damage in storm surges, it cannot be expected to prevent property damage.
