Pacifica Coastline Woes


http://www.ktvu.com/video/22710987/index.html

Here is a link to KTVU video report about waves damaging the the Mobile Home Park on Palmetto this past weekend. It takes a while to load up. Most interesting is statement at the end of the video taken from Mary Ann Nihart about the city working on a plan to protect the entire coastline of Pacifica. It made me think about some engineer's statement I heard recently advising the way to protect our coast is to sink an artificial reef. Just wondering if there is a plan yet for those ancient navy vessels stored over in Suisun Bay. With some clean up and reclaimation work they would make great artificial reefs. I know I've heard of this being done in other locations around the world.
