The document provides details on the preliminary design for the Quogue Beach Nourishment Project on Long Island, NY. It finds that the beach has lost around 60,000 cubic yards of sand per year, equivalent to 5 feet of shoreline recession. Around 1.1 million cubic yards of borrow sand is needed to restore the 2.7 mile beach and maintain it for over 10 years. Quality borrow sand has been located about 1 mile offshore. Upon completion, the widened beach is expected to offer more protection to property.

In this presentation we start with explaining the necessity of a user centered approach of any e-care solution. In the past users where only consulted when a product was almost finished at the end of a development trajectory when making changes cost a lot of money. Today another approach is becoming the best practice of R&D: user centered design. In the care domain this brings some extra challenges towards the inclusion of vulnerable people as well as overburdened care professionals. Adapted UCD strategies are thus appropriate. Illustrated with examples from own research experiences in e care R&D projects, we reflect on the essential steps, pitfalls and solutions to integrate a user centered approach in your future eCare project.

This study involved an assessment of 29 springs on the Zuni Reservation in four areas of the reservation (Nutria, Pescado, Dowa Yalanne-Black Rock, and Ojo Caliente) that represent areas with concentrations of springs or relatively large-volume spring discharge. The assessment of each spring included geologic and geomorphic mapping; measurement of spring discharge; measurement of field water quality parameters; water sample collection and analysis for major cations and anions, stable isotopes and tritium; identification of the source aquifer; and preliminary assessment of flora and fauna.

Realities of Beach Restoration in QuogueQuogueBeaches
Beach restoration using beach compatible sand from a suitable off-shore source is a logical extension of the existing Village Coastal Management Program that should be undertaken after issuance of the appropriate permits and consensus in the community.
HUG Siphon System
• The water level behind the Otto Holden Hydro Dam on the Ottawa River can be maintained at 179.5 m above sea level, while the water level in Lake Huron is 176.5 m. This difference of 3 m is the basis of water transfer through a HUG Siphon System for 171 km.
• The HUG Siphon system can be buried under any populated built up areas. HUG can also be raised to189.5 m above sea level.
• It will be difficult to say NO to Water Export Revenue of $433 Million/year at the auction price of $0.13/ m3s for 135 m3
• Each of the 150 million people whose needs could be served by the project would pay the reasonable rate of $50 per year. In this case, annual income from the exports would be $7.5 billion.
• The total initial cost of this mega project is $347.5 + $232.25 = $580 million.
• HUG has a potential of Hydro Revenue of $210 Million/yr (11 kW/m2)
• HUG has a potential of Water Export Revenue of 56 m3s@auction price of $0.13/ m3s of $180 Million/yr / HUG System
• Water Export Revenue of 2000 m3s = $6.4 Billion/yr for 35 HUG Siphon Systems
• Return on Investment : $180 +$210 / $580 million = 67%/yr for 1 HUG System.
• An alternative desalination plant (1.2 m3s) is twice the price, because it is energy intensive and it incurs high-pollution costs that could escalate as energy price increase.
• Nine bodies of 265 m3s water share the same environment: only a distance of 1.5 m to 12 km apart, which can be diverted to Lake Superior.

5. The First Coastal – CSE Team Determined:
- Quogue Beach (~2.7 miles) has lost ~60,000 cy/yr since the 1950s.
This is equivalent to ~5 ft/yr shoreline recession.
- There is a sand deficit (~495,000 cy) in the profile compared with a
normal healthy beach which is why the dry beach is narrow in summer
and some dune sections erode each year
- Quality Borrow Sand is Located ~1 mile offshore in ~50 ft depths
- Approx 1.1 million cubic yards (+/- 15%) are required to restore the
2.7 mile beach and maintain a healthy beach for over 10 years
- It is feasible to complete projects of this type in ~2 months using
ocean-going hopper dredges or (possibly) traditional pipeline dredges
- Upon completion of the project, the beach is expected to be
indistinguishable from a natural beach, but average about 75 ft wider
and offer more protection to property.
