The center restored beaches of 110 km length with total area of 140 km in Batumi, Makhinjauri, Chakvi, Kobuleti, Poti, Ochamchire, Sokhumi, Gudauta, Bichvinta, Gagra and others. SAKNAPIRDATSVA has studied the hydrological regime of the Black Sea basin rivers as well. The long-term general scheme of coast protection was drawn up.
