THE VENTURA CHAPTER

We recognize that all things are connected and everything we do impacts our coastline. To this end, for the past decade we have been working on integrated solutions to the problems that face our ocean, waves, and beaches.  These include Surfer's Point Managed Retreat, Matilija Dam Ecosystem Restoration Project, Urban Renewal, and Watershed Restoration.  Visit our Chapter Campaigns page to learn more about this effort.

Important Stuff

Surfers' Point Restoration to Start

The City of Ventura gave the go-ahead for the Surfers' Point Managed Shoreline Retreat project.  The passage of the state budget allows the previously earmarked grant funding to be released in time to break ground this year.  Construction of the first phase of the project should begin in November 2009.  For more information go to www.surferspoint.org
