Nags Head Receives $300,000 Grant from State for dune planting.

The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality’s Division of Water Resources has awarded the Town of Nags Head a $300,000 grant from the Coastal Storm Damage Mitigation Fund for a dune planting project related to previous storm damage.

In 2021, the state allocated $18 million to the Coastal Storm Damage Mitigation Fund for costs associated with beach nourishment, artificial dunes, and other projects to mitigate or remediate coastal storm damage to the ocean beaches and dune systems of the state.

The Division invited the state’s coastal communities to apply for the available grants. All eight project applications received were awarded funding.
