Picture of the Day: New Oakwood Beach

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers recently constructed a 50-foot berm at Oakwood Beach in Salem County, N.J. reducing the risk of future storm damages.

The two mile project involved pumping 350,000 cubic yards of sand from the Delaware River onto the beach.

Great Lakes Dredge & Dock Company served as contractor and completed construction in December of 2014.
