we still do modest amounts of lakefill here in chicago from time to time to create new parkland along the lakefront.
~6 acres of lake michigan were filled in a couple of years ago at fullerton to create new parkland and to help stabilize an old eroding shorline.
but regs for filling in ocean may be much more stringent than doing lakefill in lake michigan.
