ShorePlacement
<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The Shore Placement Areas feature class contains polygons representing approximate locations along the U.S. coastline where dredged material from the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) has been placed as part of a project for shore protection, beach restoration, coastal restoration, or construction project undertaken by a Federal, State, or local government agency. These locations mainly include (but are not limited to) beaches that require shoreline stabilization and beach nourishment in order to reduce future coastal storm flooding and erosion, and to provide cultural, economic, recreational, and environmental habitat benefits. Placement areas for dredged OCS material are specifically defined in every Negotiated Non-Competitive Lease or Memorandum of Agreement with Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) which authorizes contracted entities to dredge sand, gravel, or shell resources from the OCS. Section 8 (k) of the OCS Lands Act (OCSLA) as amended by Public Law 103-426 (enacted in 1994) gives BOEM the authority to negotiate an agreement for the use of OCS sand, gravel, and shell resources for use in: (1) a project for shore protection, beach restoration, or coastal restoration undertaken by a Federal, State, or local government agency; or (2) for use in a construction project funded in whole or in part by, or authorized by, the Federal government. Planned and/or as-built project placement locations are typically provided to the BOEM within or as an attachment (e.g. as-built survey drawing) to the lease agreement and post-construction/project completion reports. The polygon extents are not guaranteed to be exact and may contain estimate boundaries or generalized locations where as-built survey data were not available. Attribution consists of OCS lease number, project ID, Shore ID (placement area location or beach name), placement (construction) start and end dates, placement volume, the number of linear miles of coastline restored, and supplemental comments that provide additional context regarding the placement/construction event. This dataset will receive regular updates as new OCS leases are added or renewed and OCS sediment is allocated to planned placement sites along the U.S. coastline.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
The Shore Placement Areas feature class was created to represent the locations where sand or sediment placement is planned or has occurred as part of a coastal nourishment project and at least in part utilizing BOEM-authorized Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) sand / sediment sources for project construction. Each polygon feature illustrates the approximate lateral extent of placement associated with each project and contains attributes with supplemental information associated with project construction (e.g., BOEM OCS lease number, placement time range, placement volume, location/beach name (shore ID), planned vs actual mileage of placement, comments on ). In certain instances, project construction was completed utilizing sediment from the OCS and from state waters (landward of 3-nautical mile Submerged Lands Act Boundary). Thus, all shore placement polygon features do not represent areas exclusive to the placement of Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) sediment but rather represent an approximation of the entire placement area for the specified time range/construction event. Similarly, some placement features represent projects for which OCS sand was authorized for use but were not constructed prior to the expiration of the BOEM lease agreement. These features have a value of '0' in the 'placement volume' and 'actual miles restored' attribute fields and are also noted in the 'comments' field.

The MMIS data model utilizes a hierarchical structure where an ESRI enterprise geodatabase represents the top tier, and feature datasets and raster catalogs are the secondary tiers which contain groupings of similar data layers. These individual data layers were identified by MMP as important, and they make up the bottom tier. Most individual vector layers and tables are collections of data from multiple sources and across multiple dates. Extensive research went into the construction of (1) the hierarchical groupings of data (primarily by subject matter and file format) and (2) technical aspects of the data model. Data within the geodatabase was consolidated to reduce redundancy, resulting in several stand-alone tables. Relationship classes utilizing global IDs were built between vector layers and stand-alone tables in order to link disparate data. The entire MMIS data model was originally constructed using ESRI ArcGIS Diagrammer, a tool that creates and edits a geodatabase schema. The resulting geodatabase structure, data, and relationship classes were reviewed thoroughly by multiple individuals using ESRI Geodatabase Diagrammer Add-In, ESRI ArcGIS, and Microsoft Visio. ESRI Geodatabase Diagrammer Add-In creates a detailed break-down of the geodatabase and a Visio data model poster.

The spatial data and attribute tables loaded into the MMIS data model are believed to be complete, in regards to maintaining each data layer/table after retrieving it from its source. Please refer to the scientific reports, as well as BOEM MMP Leases, negotiated agreements, Memoranda of Agreements, and project completion reports, for discussions of the results on the corresponding source data. Most individual vector layers and tables in the MMIS data model are collections of data from multiple sources and across multiple dates. Most likely, these MMIS layers/tables will continue to have more data loaded in the future, therefore expanding upon the list of sources and dates. Additionally, the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) and Alaska OCS regions may eventually be added to the data model, aside from the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico OCS regions.

The spatial and tabular data presented in this dataset were identified by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) Marine Minerals Program (MMP) for the MMIS project as being critical for MMP's decision making and management responsibilities of Federal Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) mineral exploration and Federal non-energy sand/gravel lease activities. The locational descriptions of each beach placement area were retrieved directly from BOEM's Negotiated Non-Competitive Leases or Memorandum of Agreements. For each lease where as-planned or as-built placement shapes were not available, the placement areas were digitized in Esri's ArcMap as a point shapefile and stored in the corresponding lease project folder. Each point represented the approximate central location of the beach placement area. To provide the ability to map the beach areas as polygons, the points were buffered by a standard 100 meters using the Buffer Tool which resulted in a polygon layer. Next, a master layer was created in the MMIS geodatabase data model to house all beach placement area polygons in a single feature class (reprojected into the NAD83 geodetic reference system). A list of attributes was developed including the corresponding lease number, the construction start and ends dates, placement volume in cubic yards, and the total miles of beach restored. Attribute data were collected from lease documents, post-construction reports, survey reports, and survey data. Next, the disparate shore placement area shapefiles and their attribute data were loaded into the MMIS Shore Placement Areas feature class. For increased accessibility, each shore placement area polygon was linked to the corresponding PDF lease document(s). For specific process information regarding acquisition, please reference the individual lease documents.

The Shore Placement Areas feature class contains polygons representing approximate locations along the U.S. coastline where dredged material from the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) has been placed as part of a project for shore protection, beach restoration, coastal restoration, or construction project undertaken by a Federal, State, or local government agency. These actions are a mitigation exercise that create new beaches, restore eroded coastal areas and habitat, or widen them as part of a coastal defense or restoration scheme to slow down eroding shorelines. Shore placement areas are first identified in Negotiated Non-Competitive Leases and / or Memoranda of Agreement (MOA) between the Department of the Interior (DOI) Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) and another Federal agency (such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers), State agency, or local government agency. After dredging and placement has occurred, final placements areas are described in post-construction reports that are required by BOEM. Maintaining a spatial record of these placement areas enables BOEM to (1) keep an inventory of locations, (2) maintain records of the amount of dredged material being placed on the shoreline, and (3) monitor for the correct allocation and efficacy of materials. Shore placement polygons are created using location maps and diagrams from final reporting as well as discussions with BOEM Marine Minerals Program (MMP) scientists.
