The Salishan Resort development on the sandspit had experienced erosion during 1971-1973. “The purposes of this study are: (1) to examine the history of erosion on Siletz Spit; (2) to determine whether the erosion is part of a long term trend or is cyclical; and (3) to suggest probable causes and possible remedies for the erosion.” (from the Introduction) Oregon State University.
