The Patriot Ledger is reporting that South Shore communities are struggling to find money to repair aging seawalls in the absence of steady maintenance funding.
After the catastrophic failure of the seawall in Marshfield’s Fieldston neighborhood this week, local officials are working to patch together resources from many sources for repairs not just there, but also along other stretches of the area’s aging shoreline protection. Unfortunately, the funding is proving difficult to secure.
