Shoreline Stablization At Muses Beach, Westmoreland County, Virginia:
The U.S. Navy Communications Site project area (hereinafter referred to as “Range Station 21”) is operated by Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) and located on Muses Beach along the Potomac River in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Shoreline stabilization measures are necessary to arrest shoreline erosion that is threatening to undercut the access road to Range Station 21. The proposed project area is approximately 130 linear feet of Muses Beach in Westmoreland County, Virginia. Range Station 21 is located on private land and leased by the Navy in support of military operations at Naval Support Facility (NSF) Dahlgren; however, the proposed project area is outside the area leased by the Navy and will require the successful cooperator to negotiate a right of entry (ROE) or real estate interest with the property owner.
The primary purpose of this Cooperative Agreement is to provide services to design and construct a shoreline erosion control structure on private property to further protect the access road to Range Station 21.
The intent of these efforts is to mitigate shoreline erosion, which threatens the access road and thus the accessibility to the existing Navy range monitoring station. No land reclamation is intended in this effort. The shoreline stabilization will support military operational requirements at NSF Dahlgren and benefit efforts to improve water quality of the Potomac River and Chesapeake Bay.
