Phase 2 Project Work:

• Surveying and underground utility locate markers have been put in place. Please do not remove any staking or utility markings.
• Stormwater drainage upgrades: Excavation and replacement of the stormwater drainage system including pipes and catch basins.
• Well-pointing and dewatering operations (lowering groundwater levels to provide more stable working conditions).
• Roadway repairs, tree work, and minor landscaping.

Due to the nature of major infrastructure construction work, planned and unplanned water or utility outages in the work zone may occur. This includes possible water, sewer, internet, telephone and power interruptions. For more information please visit seapinesliving.com/lighthouselane.

Stormwater Repair: A drainage pipe repair near 140 Otter Road will take place next week.

Stormwater Management: Lagoon bank stabilization in the Live Oak area will begin next week.

Lagoon Bank Stabilization Practices: Sea Pines CSA utilizes a vegetative lagoon bank stabilization approach to help maintain shoreline integrity. This method uses vegetation to absorb excess nutrients carried by stormwater runoff, while also reinforcing the lagoon banks to prevent erosion and protect nearby roadways and leisure trails. One of the most significant erosive forces along the bank is the persistent lapping of water. These subtle wave actions gradually weaken saturated soils just below the water’s surface, causing soil particles to loosen and erode. Much of this erosion occurs underwater and may go unnoticed until the visible portion of the bank collapses. (Pictured: Severe bank erosion along the lagoon in proximity to North and South Live Oak Road)

Sea Pines CSA’s contractor will be installing ShoreSOX Erosion Control which offers a durable shoreline protection system using mesh materials that are filled with soil and sand. These structures provide a robust barrier against erosion while allowing vegetation to grow through them, further strengthening the bank over time.

Alligator breeding season is from late April to June. Please exercise caution and remain vigilant, as alligators are known to be more active during their breeding season. When outdoors, be aware of your surroundings, carry a flashlight if walking at dusk or after dark, keep your pets on a leash, and always follow the below safety guidelines:

• Assume every body of water contains an alligator
• Stay at least 60 feet (4 car lengths) away from alligators
• Alligators are ambush predators and can move faster than you or your pets
• Keep yourself, pets and children away from water’s edge
• Swimming or wading is prohibited in Sea Pines’ waterways
• Feeding or harassing alligators is dangerous and illegal
• When fishing or crabbing do not throw used bait or fish parts into the water
