When I was a kid about forty years ago, my uncle replaced his pier on outer Narragansett bay and drove new pylons into the sand. He treated the wood with a chemical that preserved the wood and placed anodes to prevent corrosion of the metal fasteners connecting the wood. He treated he wood to the waterline at low tide and also high tide. The water level hasn't raised so much as an inch in those 40 years except for storm surge, moon tides, and other unusual occurrences. If this Global warming, Climate change, environmental shift is supposed to be dooming us all to being underwater? it hasn't started around here yet.
