The Beach Erosion Authority for Clean Oceans and Nourishment (BEACON) is a
California Joint Powers agency established to deal with coastal erosion and beach problems on the
Central Coast of California. The agencies making up BEACON are Santa Barbara and Ventura
Counties and the cities of Port Hueneme, Oxnard, San Buenaventura, Carpinteria and Santa Barbara.
BEACON is currently working on a comprehensive sand management and opportunistic beach replenishment program called South Central Coast Beach Enhancement Program (SCCBEP). BEACON, at the direction of the member agencies has recently expanded
its purview to the problems of ocean water quality and plans to coordinate
activities by member agencies involving beach and ocean pollution.
