* Evaluate opportunities to accommodate future shoreline adaptation measures consistent with NPS planning objectives;
* Reuse and repurpose existing seawall materials where feasible and appropriate;
* Maintain drainage and flood recovery performance;
* Maintain, restore, and develop continuous public access to include Architectural Barriers Act (ABA)-compliant and universal access circulation routes;
