		When this channel is centrally located what happens over on Hammocks Beach State Park is that you have a build up of material on this side that provides some wave sheltering and current sheltering to this particular end of the island and therefore there would be a tendency for the island to actually grow seaward.
		The State has been contacted about what the State role would be and once the Corps reviews it, similar to the consistency program and once it goes through the State steering house that would be when it would be considered complete enough for an application to come forward from the CAMA.
		There are a fair amount of issues in beach placement, in and of itself, and then you add complexity of adding an additional channel, basically that’s what you’re talking about, through the throat of an inlet which, you know, will change the estuary and probably change the ocean.
