    Sand is pumped onto the beach at Ocean City in 1991 as part of initial construction of the beach berm and dune that are parts of the existing coastal storm risk management project. The Corps of Engineers, working closely with the state of Maryland and Ocean City, has continued to maintain the project over the years, and it has prevented an estimated nearly $1 billion in damages since initial construction.
