Abstract/Contents:Describes a beach restoration restored on the 18th hole of The Ocean course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort in South Carolina. States that "when a series of storms finally ended, a 400-foot buffer between the ocean and [holes] 16 and 18 had been reduced to 24 feet." Mentions that Kiawah Island is home to the endangered piping plover bird. Details the restoration process and concludes that "barrier islands like Kiawah undergo constant erosion and accretion as part of their natural cycle. That beach restoration could vanish within years."
