beach protection

ALLENHURST, N.J. (AP) -- A beach replenishment project has pumped battery-sized components of World War I-era ammunition onto some New Jersey beaches, and officials are warning people who find them to alert authorities.

Many New Jersey shore towns are considering new and costly ways to protect themselves in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy.

The Clean Ocean Action environmental group will cover the New Jersey and New York shoreline this summer in an organizing campaign to build support for federal laws protecting the ocean.
