. Coastal processes assessment for Brevard County, Florida, with special reference to test plaintiffs. Shorelines; Beach erosion; Coast changes. Figure 4-4. Side view of Appiegate property, December 3, 1997 (source: N. C. Kraus). In November 1984, the destructive Thanksgiving Day northeaster storm eroded the eastern shores of Florida. Some of the greatest damage by the storm took place in Brevard County (Balsillie 1985). The storm also caused major damage at the Appiegate residence and unearthed the rubble that had been covered by the 1974/75 beach fill. The Applegates commissioned a boundary survey of their property in August 1981. However, the survey does not define the MHWL or any other seaward property boundary. Plaintiffs' counsel commissioned a current-condition survey for the property in March 1996, and this survey does indicate the location of the MHWL, as well as the location of the structure and the rubble on the property at that time. Repetitive surveys of the beach profile at FDEP Monuments R-7 and R-8 document change in shoreline position and in sand volume between August 1981 and December 1997. At Monument R-7, the surveys closest in time agreeing seasonally to the purchase date were those made on September 6, 1979, and July 26, 1983. The MHWL location for these two surveys was obtained by linear interpolation in time to estimate the August 12, 1981, shoreline position. At Monument R-8, a slightly different procedure was applied to establish the MHWL at the purchase date. The two profiles bracketing the time of purchase were surveyed on November 6, A USACE beach-profile survey was performed at R-7 on December 1979, which makes it the closest in time to the purchase date, but this survey would contain the winter position of the shoreline and would not be compatible with the August purchase date and the July 1983 survey. 4-4 Chapter 4 Test Plaintiffs' Properties.
