The short explanation of this alert was:
Goleta Beach County Park in Santa Barbara has a long history of natural shoreline erosion. Unfortunately, the County is currently applying to the Coastal Commission to install a 500-foot long pile groin structure attached to Goleta Pier in order to trap sand and widen Goleta Beach. By trapping sand at Goleta, this massive structure will rob down-coast beaches of sand, threatening wildlife habitat and will lead to narrower beaches and eroding bluffs. Please take a moment to send a letter asking that other alternatives be taken.
