Appendices document physical and numerical model studies done at the Waterways Experimentation Station for the structures and beach, as well as the post-construction and post-planting monitoring programs. Buhne Point is located on the east shore of Humboldt Bay, California. In Phase III, a 1,050' shore connected, rubble mound breakwater was constructed on the northerly face of the beach.
