When the Army Corps of Engineers released its updated 2024 back bay protection plan in December, the study area was well known to the agency as home to 10 active coastal storm risk management projects.

The recently released draft report for the back bay covers an area of 950 square miles across five New Jersey counties and 89 municipalities. It involves 3,500 linear miles of shoreline, from Long Branch in the north to Cape May Point in the south.
