| Summary |
Project aims to investigate the sea shore stability prblem in the village of Grigoleti (near the sea port of Poti). An intensity of erosion at this point reaches 2-3 m/year, the nearshore load transportation rate is 200 000 cubic meter/year. For refulation more than 50 000 - 100 000 cubic meter/year material is needed, what at present is unrealistic. Recommendations to construct several breakwaters are given, as well, as an analisis of there influence on the environment. |
