The Seabrook Island Property Owners Association is seeking approval to relocate Captain Sam's Inlet to its original site, which involves excavating 10 acres of sand and filling 10 acres of water to stabilize the inlet and reduce erosion. The project aims to support the natural migration of the inlet while protecting habitats for 18 identified threatened or endangered species. Approval is required from the state Department of Environmental Services and the Army Corps of Engineers amid ongoing legal disputes concerning conservation efforts in the area.
