Legislative barriers caused more delays, even though a government effort in 2020 restored some short respite by resupplying sand.<\/p>\n<p>According to Stephen Rochette of the US Army Corps of Engineers, the project\u2019s start date is now set for \u201csometime this summer or in the fall,\u201d with $25 million in authorized government financing out of an expected $30 million cost. Between April and May, contractors will have the chance to submit bids for the project.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Industry Concerns and Urgency<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Stakeholders in the business emphasize how urgent it is to finish the project before summer arrives, even though the proposed beach restoration gives optimism. Resorts\u2019 president, Mark Giannantonio, highlights the importance of sand delivery, calling it a \u201cbeach-lite\u201d option that is essential to the company\u2019s sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>In a similar vein, general manager of Ocean Casino Resort Bill Callahan emphasizes how important beaches are to drawing travelers. He raises concerns about the viability of running a beach resort without sufficient beachfront and stresses the need for quick action to prevent serious financial consequences.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/kats-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"Kats Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/kats-casino-1.jpg.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/kats-casino\/\" title=\"Kats Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Kats Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong><strong>250% Extra + $125 Free Chip!<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only. 250% on 1st Deposit + $125 Free Chip<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-rating box-25 relative mb-10\">\n<div class=\"rating-box text-center box-100  relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-rating-box relative\">\n<div class=\"stars\"><span class=\"star on\"><\/span><span class=\"star on\"><\/span><span class=\"star on\"><\/span><span class=\"star on\"><\/span><span class=\"star on\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-rating-notice relative\">Casino<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\n\t\t\t\t <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-button box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-button-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/kats-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">\tVisit Site<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Stakeholders are uniting quickly to find solutions in response to Atlantic City\u2019s deteriorating beaches, realizing how critical it is to protect the city\u2019s famous shoreline for both locals and tourists.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/beach-erosion-poses-persistent-threat-to-atlantic-city-casinos\/\">Beach Erosion Poses Persistent Threat to Atlantic City Casinos<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/\">iGaming.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The deteriorating beaches of Atlantic City pose a constant danger to the survival of this famous coastal resort city every winter.
