Nitinat beach camping prohibited now?

Hey everyone,
I am getting conflicting reports from people visiting Nitinat. Some friends tell me that camping on the beach is now prohibited and people have to turn back due to lack of camping spots, yet others say that people are still camping on the beach.
I emailed the campground but they didn't answer whether camping is now prohibited on the beach, only saying that they're building new campsites and that they want to clear the beach for public use, whatever that would be.
Does anyone know what's going on there? From what I know they've only built 10-15 new camp sites so far, so if camping is now only allowed in designated spots around the old loop road (the one that was there last year) Nitinat's tent capacity is now what... a third of what it was last year, at best? That sounds insane. That can't possibly be true?
PS yes, I did read the Nitinat redevelopment thread, no info about beach camping there.
