HEY we are Eligible for funding
The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) has released the 2006 Critical Erosion Report that outlines areas of the state that are eligible for funding. In Walton County , our overall mileage of critically eroded shoreline has increased to 14.3 miles of beaches but only includes 9.3 miles of roughly 15 miles of developed beaches along the 30-A corridor. Therefore, it does not include all of Walton County 's beaches.
The critically eroded areas as determined by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection include eight areas (from west to east):
all of western Walton County that is currently being restored (5,0 miles)
from Stallworth Lake in Dune Allen and the eastern ½ of Old Florida Beach (2.7 miles)
from the Inn at Blue Mountain to near Draper Lake, but not all of Blue Mountain (1.0 miles) We need to define what Near Draper lake means though.
Gulf Trace (0.2 miles)
The western developed area of the Grayton Beach community, but not the drive-on access (0.1 miles)
From the western boundary of Old Seagrove through the Eastern Lake area (3.1 miles)
From near Camp Creek point to the eastern boundary of Sand Cliffs Subdivision (1.8 miles)
From the eastern border of Rosemary Beach to the western border of the Walton County TDC's Inlet Beach Regional Access (0.4 miles)
