This action also aims to introduce the sand stock management methods: -Programming Periodic topographic campaigns to analyze the evolution of beach profile -Programming Of réengraissement work The objective is to maintain a constant profile over the entire range of linear: -A Solarium 4m NGF with a cross section of 35 m -A Range of profile of 80 m and a side slope between 7 and 8% The average volume of sand intake is estimated at 60 000 m3. Based on annual sediment budgets, the overall nourishment work could be carried out every 10 years.Implementation cost
