MUNITIONS FOUND ON BEACH

Munitions have been discovered on the beaches of Surf City, NJ. Some date back to WW I. In an attempt to widen the beaches, the Army Corps of Engineers had been dredging sand from the sea floor a few miles from shore. This sand contains ordinances from as far back as the first World War. When the beaches open back up for the public, there well be signs that there will be no metal detectors allowed on the beach and no digging further than a foot down for fear of finding other pieces of muntions.
