"The use of patented "Undercurrent Stabilizer" systems is being employed to work with nature by utilizing her wave, current and tidal energy carrying sand to the beach area from offshore deposits. This natural process actually accomplished the same result as artificial beach nourishment but without disturbing the natural ecology of the ocean bottom. An additional benefit is that it does not require continual replenishment, cause an increase in the erosion rate or the harmful effects that offshore dredging and strip mining does to maintain the beach (U.S. Corps of Engineers, 1989)"
