To the Editor: 

Beach Haven native Bill Kapler was incredibly prophetic when he said the rebuilding of the dunes (with bay “spoils”) along Norwood Avenue to Dolphin Avenue in Beach Haven would not last (“Beach Haven Native Says Dredged Sand Doesn’t Fit the Bill,” 8/12).

As he predicted, upon sunrise Aug. 17, I found the beach was gone, the dune and new fencing collapsed and even a lifeguard bench was in the wake and broken.
