TOMS COVE DISTRICT, Va. ?EUR" Recently a ribbon cutting ceremony was held for Assateague Island National Seashore?EUR(TM)s sustainable bathhouse project. The bathhouse project is one of several environmentally sustainable design construction projects currently underway at the National Perk Service?EUR(TM)s Assateague Island National Seashore, which serves two million visitors annually. The cost effective measures installed on Assateague Island this summer include several innovative elements. Faced with a rapidly moving shoreline and the unsuitability of conventional structures, lightweight cabana structures were developed, which are easy to set up and dismantle, also allowing easy removal from the beach during pre-storm evacuations.
