OK, I have not had the time to read your link on Coast 2050. I am assuming it is what folks think is necessary, backed by sound advice on it.

Lets assume - yes,it needs to be done. What is the bone of contention then ? Is State/Fed/local govt saying "no" ? If they are, is there a sound reason for that stance ?

I suspect you are barking up an unattainable tree on the wetlands. Figure on getting the money for the gates, channels and dikes.
