A series of dramatic storms last winter caused the severe erosion of bluffs at Ocean Beach, threatening critical infrastructure. What's the future for Ocean Beach? Learn about the hidden physical processes shaping the area, and the far-reaching implications for coastal zone and climate adaptation planning from coastal engineer Bob Battalio of PWA Engineers. Hear about SPUR's new project to create a multi-agency Ocean Beach Master Plan—a long-term approach to create an innovative plan for this magnificent public coastline—from project director Benjamin Grant.
