To the Editor:

This letter is in response to a June 10 article on dredge spoils fortifying Beach Haven beaches.

While dredge spoils may be fortifying Beach Haven beaches, they appear to be spoiling the beaches as well. It’s one thing to use dredge spoils to fortify bay barrier islands such as Parker Island which are uninhabited by humans, and quite another to use the same material to fortify densely populated ocean beaches.
