They recently submitted another request for update permit status but have not received a response yet. Project Locationĭredge design project - Coastal Engineering has submitted permit applications to agencies for the proposed dredge project, recently receiving the FDEP permit.

This project will restore depth and width of the navigated channel. This project is targeting shoaled in sediment above -6' Mean Low Water from the access channel inland north of the marina approximately 9300' of project limits and targeting roughly 3400 cubic yards of material. Those results and current allowable budget were the basis for the locations that are proposed for the future dredge event. The channel was last surveyed in 2021 and those bathymetric results were reviewed with the AB. Since the last dredge event in 2017 and a small spot dredge of access channel in 2019, new concern has been brought to the Advisory Board and the county prompting the initiation of this contract. This work has been requested by the MSBU Waterway Advisory Board and will be fund by the same. We must enter a design phase with an engineering firm first, to design, permit and included bid process assistance and construction oversight of the dredge event. The objective of the project is to construct a maintenance dredge event along portions of the Alligator Creek access channel and main channel of the north branch.
