Summary edit

Description Col. Paul E. Owen (right), commander of the New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers stands with New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Commissioner Joe Martens near a barrier island breach in Cupsogue County Park on Friday November 16, 2012 on Long Island. The breach was created by Hurricane Sandy. In the distance is a dredge in nearby Moriches Inlet that is mobilizing to close the breach using sand from the inlet. The breach closure work is being done in partnership with DEC and local authorities in accordance with the Breach Contingency Plan. Prior to the development of the BCP, breaches could take several months to close, but using the BCP the Cupsogue County Park breach is expected to closed in a matter of several weeks rather than months.
