Funds Flow for Battered Beaches

Coming to Long Island for a press conference with local officials, Gov. Kathy Hochul announced $5 million for shoreline stabilization at Brookhaven Town's ocean beaches and repairs to Overlook Beach in Babylon. She also promised funds to repair damage and clean up debris at the state's Gilgo Beach Park, where the storms uncovered the remains of an old Coast Guard Station. Approximately 50,000 cubic yards of sand will be placed at the park entrance and other access points to make the beach safer for the summer season.
