Buxton beach nourishment project resumes after coastal storm

Original: Buxton beach nourishment project starts back up after coastal storm

Beach nourishment work in Buxton, on North Carolina's Outer Banks, has restarted after being paused by a coastal storm. Crews are returning to pumping and placing sand along the shoreline to rebuild the eroded beach. The storm had halted progress on the project, which is closely watched by local residents concerned about erosion and storm protection for the community.

Why now: A recent coastal storm disrupted the project, so its resumption matters to residents concerned about shoreline erosion.
