Three projects underway along Harrison County coastline

Harrison County supervisors voted to advance the Hurricane Zeta Outfall Repair Project, one of three efforts to restore the Mississippi coastline. Work along Highway 90 includes adding sand to beaches and restoring dunes with nearly two million plants across more than 400 dunes. The projects aim to rebuild the shoreline, support native wildlife and improve the coast after erosion. Federal coastal-improvement funding supports the sand replenishment.
