Final Report <strong>Bogue</strong> <strong>Banks</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> & Nearshore Mapping Program<br />
Periodic Survey Evaluation<br />
A target minimum volume for each profile from the foredune (landward most crest of the<br />
primary dune) to the outer bar (above -12 ft NAVD88) was established at 225 cy/ft during the<br />
formulation of the <strong>Bogue</strong> <strong>Banks</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> Restoration Project. Along <strong>Bogue</strong> <strong>Banks</strong> and Bear<br />
Island, the average profile volume from the dune to the outer bar exceeds the 225 cy/ft threshold.<br />
The average profile volume on Shackleford <strong>Banks</strong> is currently below the 225 cy/ft threshold.<br />
Figure 9 displays the average profile volume to the outer bar per transect within each reach of<br />
shoreline for 2008 - 2011. Values displayed in the graph are tabulated in Table 14.<br />
