Planning Assistance for the Town of Hamburg, County of Erie, New York, Hoover Beach.

Abstract

The purpose of this report is to provide planning assistance to officials of both the county of Erie and the town of Hamburg by identifying and evaluating flood and erosion damage reduction measures which will meet their respective goals. The report provides information which can be used in the present situation, as well as developing sound flood plain and coastal zone management goals for the future. Current federal policies do not authorize the use of Federal funds to provide erosion control measures on private property. The study was to determine if any current Corps of Engineers authority applies to the problems of Hoover Beach.
